Saw Pikachu last night. The design of the world and characters is top notch.
That’s about it. The human characters are pretty poor most of the way. And Reynolds is decent as Pikachu, but his humour doesn’t fit the kids movie, and the writing wasn’t making much of an attempt at a Pixarish blend of subtle adult humour, so a held back Reynolds doesn’t really hit his mark. Some fun Easter eggs and call backs. And the actual Pokémon battling that did happen was awesome. But there wasn’t very much of it really.
4/10.
