Critic Reviews

Lisa Alspector, Chicago Reader
The repetitive plot is essentially a string of excuses for fantastical combat sequences, but somehow several characters' insistence that violence is bad doesn't come off as hypocritical.

Liam Lacey, Globe and Mail
The wisdom of putting bad experiences behind us never rang more true than after viewing this movie. Avoiding it though, may be impossible, so be prepared.

Michael Atkinson, Village Voice
It makes the Star Wars mythos play like Pong.

Anita Gates, New York Times
A lot has been written about the admirable lessons that Pokemon teaches children about responsibility, teamwork and obedience. But some unfortunate messages are being sent as well.

Hannah Brown, New York Post
Strictly a kids' movie.
