hayashimegumi Organizing a personal Pokémon Movie Marathon (22 films) makes it less difficult to distinguish the differences between the Pokémon films and it is fun to observe their growth. However, I can't tell which Pokémon films is the best yet even though I have seen all of them before long ago as I watched them in different years and I do not have perfect memories.At this point, I am just done rewatching one quarter of all Pokémon films ever released by Pokémon but I think I have identified one thing from watching Mewtwo Returns (2000); this is how Pokémon films should have been from the start!Mewtwo Returns (2000) is a follow up to Pokémon the First Movie. It may be confusing to those of you who have not seen Mewtwo Strikes Back (1998) and the short anime The Birth of Mewtwo but if you do, you will notice that this one has a better script. The characters are not that flat anymore by being more lively and expressive, just like its TV anime series. However, like almost everything else in the world, it is not perfect but still interesting to watch.It champions equality, wonder and nature of life, which leisurely reveal to us the charm of Pokémon world in addition to revealing to us more about Mewtwo! Although Mewtwo appears to be less invincible here, it has a softer heart and a much enlightened mind so that development is a must watch for Mewtwo fans!
badboypjm666 I thought this was a brilliant film, it explains a lot about Mewtwo's departure after the first film. the emphasis is on mewtwo's solitary with the cloned pokemon he lives with, and Giovanni's quest to reclaim mewtwo as his own property.The film has a deep storyline and is obviously set within the Johto League. This doesn't seem to be in the list of official pokemon films so i can only assume it was a straight to video extra, which is good for any fan of pokemon who wants an explanation of happenings and events after the first movie, even though it is set 2 or 3 seasons later.I would recommend this film for any pokemon fan, especially great fans of the first film, very well worth a watch!
marcheatham I've never seen Mewtwo's mouth so big before, but I don't really care anything about that. Besides, I love anime, and about half the characters are cutie-pies. (Pikachu, Wigglytuff, Chikorita, Togepi, Etc) I also kind of think Mewtwo is sort of hot... don't ask. It's mostly just his voice. I like how in the first movie he's determined to wipe all humans and most Pokémon off the face of the earth, but then in this movie he's kinda nice. I think one of my favorite scenes is when he's in the water of the spring. And the lesson all this teaches is that life is what it is, and everyone deserves to live it, no matter who you are. Speaking of which, I don't care what others think of Pokémon or anything to do with it, I still like this movie. ^_^ Hence, the comment title, A Beautiful Disaster. Thank you.
karigilmore This movie's short, but it's great! I enjoyed watching Ash and co. re-introduce themselves to Mewtwo and bringing back all of the clones! The Pikachu and Meowth clones are great! And Giovanni tries to get Mewtwo back again! What'll happen? Find out for yourselves!
