It's not terribly different to the other movies, but at least it feels a little more original. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

Welll A @Azevader88 Mar 10 - Nossa, que milagre algum resquício de continuidade nessa série! Giratina se lembra de Ash do filme anterior, e Ash se lembra de Giratina! Coisa raríssima. - E o plot inovador, onde um humano inescrupuloso quer aprisionar um pokémon lendário por seus interesses escusos e ambiciosos -- desta vez envolvendo a joia da vida cedida por Arceus (literalmente Deus), que após seu uso, o vilão não quis devolver conforme acordado anteriormente -- uau... Dessa vez temos viagem no tempo! Aí sim, né. Novidade!...😐 "Pokémon 4" (2005) já tinha feito isso poucos anos antes. E fez melhor. - Só curti o callback fofo que foi o cameo dos iniciais de Johto e Pichu. . #Telegram See more Nathan J. @NathanDirector Mar 3 Rating: 7.5/10 ⭐️ I expected a standard wrap-up for Pokémon Day, but was surprised by how deep and mythological this gets. The Director’s Eye: Yuyama’s Greek-inspired ruins look incredible. Studying these ancient European landscapes actually gave me fantastic visual inspiration. The story resonates deeply with my faith: Arceus, a creator figure, awakens to deliver righteous judgment. It touches beautifully on grace, redemption, and restoring a broken covenant. I loved the wholesome message that a land flourishes through hard work and dedication, not just miracles. The sweeping score perfectly captures the awe of facing a creator deity. The Cuts: The time-travel mechanics get muddy, and the pacing really stumbles with way too much exposition in the past. Also, the clunky CGI battles clash with the beautiful Greek aesthetic. Verdict: A visually grand conclusion with a strong moral core about stewardship. Favorite Line: “Even without the Jewel of Life, Michina is still fertile due to the people and Pokémon cultivating the land.” See more Stephen C @bob25009 Nov 13 Funny in 1 hour and 35 minutes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!👨🏻‍🦲👩🏻‍🦲🧑🏻‍🦱👨🏻‍🦱👵🏻👴🏻🧓🏻👨🏻‍🦰👩🏻‍🦰👶🏻🧑🏻‍🦰👩🏻‍🦱🎈 See more 06/20/2022 The greatest 01 hour: and 35 minutes ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
