>>31864390Maybe I was in a good mood when I watched it, but I really enjoyed it. It's been more than 6 months, so I may not remember everything.
Interesting opening, sets up the plot and 'bad guy'
The starting tournament shows us the city and whats at stake if the sword thing destroys everything. Getting to know the setting and people was a real breath of fresh air after a lot of the previous movies were just glossing over that, making it feel like nothing was at stake, not this time though.
The actual villain was doing something he thought was right, and the conflict with his village (?) and family and main characters was enjoyable to see.
Victini didn't talk which was a fucking godsend and the dragons were pretty cool, handled well.
The gimmick with two movies was minor but nice for those who want their favorite leggo to be the key.
Maybe I was just easily impressed coming off the dreadful gen 4 movies but this one I thought was definitely the best Pokemon movie
