My Review of "Pokemon Detective Pikachu"

Ryan Reynolds shines in a dull film.

The story line was standard and predictable. I knew what was going to happen, and it failed to keep my interested.

The creature designs were well done. How they did it was good, and I was impressed with how real it looked.

The live action acting was dull, and made me cringe. Justice Smith did not do a great job, and Bill Night and Ken Watanabe were cringe worthy as well.

Ryan Reynolds was great as Pikachu. Hopefully he does the voice again the sequel.

The humor was well done sometimes. The mime seen was the best in the film.

Overall, while Pokemon Detective Pikachu has some great visuals, some well done humor, and a great voice performance from Ryan Reynolds, the film suffers from a poor story and horrible acting.

Out of 4 stars I would give it...
