Pokémon The Movie: I Choose You! [DVD]

A modern take on the Classic tail of Ash and Picachu on how they became friends and their journey began. Highly recommend for any Pokémon fan young or old

As a child of the 90'S Pokémon is very nostalgic for me. Although this is based on the Indigo League from 1997, it's family friendly and my cousin will enjoy it.

Good film

Great spin on the original story of Ash and Pikachu in Kanto! Would be a perfect introduction for a new Pokemon fan, but there’s also tons in this film to please old fans too - plenty of references to previous anime’s and films, as well as tons of new content! Really enjoyed it!

I'm wondering if the reason some people have received copies of this item without the bonus disc is because they had '1 disc version' selected by mistake when ordering, instead of '2 disc version', since they both listed on the page. That being said, I received a copy with both discs and am pleased to report that this version of 'Mewtwo Strikes Back' is the widescreen version! Sadly there are no bonus features (so no Pikachu's Vacation short), audio or subtitle options on the disc and the few minutes of footage cut from the beginning (and later released on Mewtwo Returns as a bonus) is still missing. Also, surprisingly, the audio is not surround sound, meaning the soundtrack quality is affected, and audio effects they used to convey the difference between Mewtwo's telepathy and private thoughts have been lost. Moving on to 'I Choose You' - I really enjoyed this alternate timeline take on Ash's journey. There are a number of references to the original series sprinkled throughout (the most being the first few minutes of the movie) to give older fans a nostalgia trip, but for the most part the story is its own creature, with Ash somewhat more competent from the start, his travelling companions being unique to this film and nods to a variety of generations all the way up to Alola. The art is crisp and gorgeous to look at, the animation is dynamic and captures the high energy action beautifully, and the dub soundtrack backed up the visuals fine. I do enjoy the credits song they made for this one. For note, only the English audio track is included, with subtitles for the hard of hearing. On the downside the film suffered from a case of not quite knowing what it wanted to do with trying to showcase new Pokemon Marshadow alongside Ho-oh, which resulted in some concepts - especially the whole Rainbow Hero thing - being unclear and confusing. The outcome of the final scene was also kind of disappointing - missing out on a huge opportunity to showcase one of Ho-oh's main abilities, instead leaving matters to resolve themselves seemingly out of convenience. Overall I had a great time with 'I Choose You'. It got daring in places and took gambles which we haven't seen these films doing in a long while. There were a couple of genuinely moving scenes, one of which got me choked up. A worthwhile viewing, despite a couple of flaws. I am looking forward to the second movie in this alternate timeline!

This arrived very fast and was very well packaged. This movie was amazing, a true emotional rollercoaster and great animation. Well worth any penny or any anime lover or collector.

What can I say, I'm a fan of Pokemon and I'm a harsh critic in movies, I expect only the best, since Pokemon 2000...well this movie was beyond awesome and I loved every minute of it :)

The film was okay, however there was no bonus first movie disc even though it was very clealy advertised when I bought it.

日本語版はテレビでやってたのを録画して何度も観たので、子供が英語を聴くのに使おうと購入。 海外製品なので、再生機器が限られています。 ちなみに、これ(DVD)はヨーロッパ圏のものなので日本と同じ２。 しかし、機器(プレイヤー)自体が日本でしか対応しない物だと観られません。 海外版を購入される際はよく調べて下さい！ まぁ安いからいいか。観られたらいいな…と期待を込めて買いました。 テレビで観ようとしてみましたが、 テレビのBlu-ray&DVDプレイヤーでは再生不可。 じゃぁと出した ポータブルDVDプレイヤーでは再生可能でした。 内容はピカチュウ以外はもちろん吹き替え。 聴きやすい英語な気がします。 主題歌も変わるんですね！ノリノリで頭に残るものでした！素晴らしい。 子供が少しでも英語に触れられるように、これからも海外版のアニメを購入したいです。

DVD uniquement en Anglais. Impossible de changer la langue. C de l'import

Ich wollte mir kurzfristig den neuen Pokémon Film bestellen und wurde bei der Lieferung gleich mehrfach positiv überrascht. Zum einen ist die Verpackung sehr hochwertig und schön anzusehen. Im DVD Regal sieht sie Top aus und sticht aus den anderen Deutlich hervor. Desweiteren war mir zum bestell Zeitpunkt nicht bewusst, dass 2 DVDs mit 2 Filmen enthalten sind. Somit ist der Preis nicht nur vertretbar sondern ein Schnapper! Ein muss für jeden Fan!
