Forgetful Detecting
I kept forgetting Bill Nighy was in "Detective Pikachu" before I finally saw it. But he is. And it was.
Awesome. It was awesome.
I'd heard people say that it was weak outside of seeing live Pokemon, but I might tend towards the inverse. It was a fun adventure film outside of the visuals, which are never my main draw to a movie. The Pokemon looked good, but they didn't seem miraculously realistic. They just had an overall design that brought their level of detail up, but I'd still say Jar-Jar and company looked more natural in a real world than anything here. That's no knock against the film. I liked how it maintained a bit of the cartoony feel of the franchise, but my experience was at odds with a lot of what I'd heard about the film.
Anyway, it's a fun time. And the ending was an adorable surprise.
Best Eevee?
Sylveon. Because fairies.
