Pokemon Detective Pikachu

Rated: PG
Release Date: May 10, 2019
Runtime: 1 hour 44 minutes
Director: Rob Letterman
Starring: Justice Smith, and Featuring the voice of Ryan Reynolds


      This live-action adaptation of the world-wide phenomenon Pokémon, A young man named Tim (Smith), live in a world where humans and Pokémon co-exist. He teams up with A Pokémon named Detective Pikachu (Reynolds), to find out what happened to his father, who mysteriously disappeared. This is a movie that I'd say, is between bad and good.


     Parents, I'd say go ahead and take your kids to this film but WARNING: there is one scene (it's in the trailer too) where Pikachu says something that you probably don't want your kids to hear. So, there's the only spoiler alert your getting.

Final Grade:
C+

UglyDolls

     This film has wonderful messages about following your dreams, ignore those that tell you that you'll never accomplish those dreams, and it's also a musical! Parents, this movie is aimed toward young kids so, there's obviously family-fun for everyone! Take the whole family to this one!
