Managed to convince my roommate to see this with me, so I guess my dad will be spared the experience of going to another Pokmon movie 20 years after he thought he was done with them when I go home in a month...!

So the best Video game movie before that has 52%? Man why is this so hard?


Assassin's Creed was so insane to me. Great cast, director was supposed to be solid, well-funded, game locations provided great opportunities for beautiful cinematography...and it was so depressing. I didn't hate it but it was such a disappointment. I don't understand how they messed that up.

That said, the new Tomb Raider is quite underrated.

Your feelings about "Pokemon: Detective Pikachu" probably hinge on if you can tell a Squirtle from a Charmander. No? Then you seeing this movie shouldn't make you Bulbasaur.

That's what I got.

Aren't some user scores for the Heaven's Feel movies pretty high?

Not sure if they count, but they were released in theatres and people did seem to like them a lot.

I don't care what anybody says. Bringing up Rotten Tomatoes reviews of movies? So what. My Dad never took me to go see a movie with him, ever in his life. I wanted him to take me to go see the 2007 Transformers movie and his response of course was no. Because he cares about my cousin Jordan Condra act like a see you next tuesday on a modeling show instead. Back when I was in 7th Grade in 2007, one of the teachers put on Ratatouille to watch in the classroom and everybody was making sex jokes and noises while the movie was playing. And I tortured myself watching 2 minute long Eve Torres matches in High School because my Dad liked her (who was only on TV thanks to a horrendous boob job) and he doesn't like much of anything. I don't give a crap what kind of content I upload to YouTube. I'm better where I am right now and I'm not wasting my damn time, being concerned what the review score of a movie is on Rotten Tomatoes.

What's the highest-scoring video game film before this? Prince of Persia?

Rampage got a 52%. Not sure if theres anything higher than that


It's Rampage.

The Power of Us, the Pokmon anime movie released last year, managed to get a 60% RT score on five reviews, giving that movie, not Rampage, the highest rated video-game based movie of all-time. Detective Pikachu is now beating that, and is sure to take that honor. It is quite an accomplishment.

Yo-Kai Watch: The Movie actually ranks higher, but that never got a theatrical release in the West, so I'm not gonna count that.

I feel like this is a movie critics with no Pokemon knowledge will not get. How do other Pokemon movies do for reviews?

I think this movie was probably crafted to have mass appeal

Even if you don't know much about Pokemon you can be like, well Ryan Reynolds was cute as Pikachu


Yes but it will probably be full of references. I spotted about 20 in the movie poster alone.

Can confirm the movie have a mass appeal
You really don't need to know Pokemon from beforehand to understand it

There are some minor parts that require a previous Pokemon knowledge to understand, but it's minor

No point to spoiler tag what I mean as nobody will read it until they see it next week
