As someone who has played the Detective Pikachu game and really enjoyed it I’ll say that the movie is good but not great, now if I went through every single difference between the game and the movie we’d be here all day but one thing I will say that did kind of bother me is that Pikachu himself didn’t seem as smart as he was in the game it almost felt like his character had been dumbed down for the movie also for movie that’s supposed to be called DETECTIVE Pikachu it didn’t seem like there was a whole lot of detective work going on in this movie in fact one of the best aspects of the Detective Pikachu game is that it actually makes you feel like a real detective by interviewing witnesses and looking for clues near the crime scene and there was very little of that in the movie.

5-6/10 you say is the "lower end?" That still makes it the best video game movie (the rest are at best 3/10). Personally I thought this was amazing, even if it falls a little short, just for the sheer fact of "not ash" and "pokemon in real life." I also went to the movie dressed as Oddish (because I cosplay as Oddish), and everyone complemented me on it, and 2 people even took a picture with me.

Pretty insightful review. Haven’t watched it myself, but have been hearing about the general consensus being that the Pokémon are great in the film, but the story isn’t something to write home about. Hopefully to give the film a watch soon.

I'm still not sure why they went with a spinoff game for the big cinematic journey to the screen. Guess it could have been worse.
