Amazon.co.uk Review
The world domination of Pokémon begets their first theatrical movie. This adventure is a little more complex and dark than the popular TV series, but kids who live for the show will gobble up this film and ask for seconds. Those baffled by the show's popularity, however, will see nothing better here. Mewtwo, a new type of Pokémon designed by scientists to be the ultimate fighter, decides he wants to rule the world and challenges all the great Pokémasters to battle. Of course, our intrepid heroes Ash, Misty and Brock are there to tangle with Mewtwo and spoil his devilish schemes. The film is a tad more emotional than the show (that is, there is some emotion), with Ash sacrificing himself to defend his beloved Pikachu (but don't you worry, Ash will be just fine).

Would you really expect the makers of this worldwide phenomenon to radically change its winning formula? The feature is only 55 minutes long, but there's also a 20-minute short, "Pikachu's Vacation". For the Pokémon novice, this escapade will truly baffle: the narrated tale has virtually no dialogue except Pokémon speaking their names (Bulbasaur, for instance, will only express emotion by using variations of his name: "Bulba, Bulba-SAUR!"). It's a real curio. --Doug Thomas

5 out of 5 stars Pokemon movie 1   September 12, 2009
Hello I am 8 and got 'Pokemon: Mewtwo Vs Mew' for my birthday. It is a brilliant movie. A bit about what happens: Soem scientists dream of creating the world's most powerful Pokemon. They mix the DNA of Mew, and then succeed by making Mewtwo. Unfortunately, it turns evil and goes destroying the world. Featuring a short movie called Pikachu's Summer Vacation. Pikachu is in a summer camp, and so are Ash, Misty and Brock's other Pokemon. Unfortunately, Togepi gets into lots of adventures. To make it worse, a naughty Raichu, Snubbul, Cubone and Marill come along. Dun dun dun...


5 out of 5 stars The first pokémon movie... and still the best?   September 3, 2009

If you like pokémon, you will love this movie. If you like anime, you will love this movie. If you simply like good films, you will love this movie. (or any mixture of the three!) It manages to include nearly every pokémon from the original games, and along with its beautiful backgrounds, stunning animation and great plot, this film is a JOY to watch.

Get this movie. It is a beautiful adaptation of the successful pokémon franchise and a must have for any fan.

This as a note of warning is for children only,either that or fans too (I am aware it sadly has an adult audience).I bought this for my younger brother and I sadly just enjoyed it as a cartoon.This is coming from someone with no previous knowledge of Pokemon.I think kids will lap this up.


4 out of 5 stars Loved this film when was i was young... and still do   June 18, 2009

If you love Pokemon then you will love this film. I used to watch this film over and over on video when I was younger and came across it by chance a few weeks ago on DVD. I would recommend people who were fans of the original series to buy this film and just enjoy it all over again.
