Owen Ogletree The sixth Pokémon movie is decent, but it's quite underwhelming compared to the best Pokémon movies. There are some things to enjoy, but there just wasn't much that was great or notable about it.There wasn't much plot, to be honest. Most of the movie takes place at a circus and the last half hour was mostly spent on getting Jirachi to his home.Jirachi was kind of cute but rather annoying for the most part, and I felt that his relationship with Max was kind of forced. It had the basic message of lasting friendship that while nice, has already been done before.There wasn't much excitement until the last 20 minutes and the animation is still good but a definite step down from "Pokémon Heroes."However, I will admit that there were some funny moments involving Jirachi, and Butler was fairly interesting as a villain. Even if a lot of the magic show scenes went on a little too long, some of them were quite entertaining.Groudon is another cool legendary Pokémon, and the final 20 minutes are exciting enough. I also loved the "Make a Wish" song at the end credits.Easily the worst Pokémon movie up to this point and, in my opinion, one of the least memorable. However, even though it's nothing special, at least it's never boring. It's not the worst Pokémon movie and it's still worth a watch, but don't expect anything mind-blowing.RATING: C+
gandalf_a_1999 I wasn't expecting much. I found the Mewtwo movie better. I thought it would be interesting having a pokemon grant wishes, but hey this is for kids. I have also seen pokemon 2 and will be watching Pokemon 7 Destiny Deoxys. I started watching the TV series then the red/blue gold silver and other games came out, then we got the Mewtwo movie so I have missed the ones between 2 and this one. If you don't know much about pokemon you wont get the small team rocket parts and the powers pokemon have such as Pikachu's thunder attacks, but you wont miss much of the story. Go back and watch the TV series or play a gameboy version if you're a bit lost but I doubt it.A better name for the magician could have been better, though it was original. The plot is simple and you don't need to guess whats going to happen.
Wmill22069 This is a great Pokemon movie, the only one that's better is "Pokemon 2000 the movie". I'm not spoiling this movie, you need to watch it yourself! :) I have watched all of the released Pokemon movies so far, but this one and 2000 take the cake, frosting, and food coloring! I felt like crying at the end, it was so sad when Jirachi went back to sleep for 1000 more years. The last three movies had me crying or almost crying, In Pokemon 4EVER, I cried when Celebi died (even though he was brought back to life but it was still sad....) and also when Sammy left. SPOILER! SAMMY IS PROFESSER OAK!!!!!!!!!!!!! In Pokemon Heroes, I cried when Latios was killed. SPOILER! At the very end of the movie, I saw the dead brother Latios, the dead father Latios, and the live sister Latias (yes, her name is Latias, not Latios, it varies depending on gender, boys are Latios and girls are Latias) flying above the ocean!!!!!!! What's up with that!!!!!!!!!! And in this movie, when Jiraci left Max, Ash, May, and Brock, I almost cried with that. The end song was wonderful, I love listening to it over and over and over! All in all, this movie is very good and actually has emotional scenes between the semi-villain Butler and the one he loves, Dianne. Well, bring on Pokemon Movie 7 coming out in Febuary!!!!!!!!!
Matt Brown This movie is the best out of all 6 movies released so far. It has everything the other Pokemon films had except its executed much better. The two new characters Max and May add something to this movie that the others lack... the sense of a real chemistry between characters. While the villain in this one is the stupidest of the series (I mean his name is butler and he is a magician, come on). The song at the end of the film is very beautiful and nice to listen too. Overall this film is one of the better animated releases this year, too bad it was released direct to video while the last 3 crappy Pokemon films got theatrical releases.GRADE: B
