Pokemon Movie – Lucario and The Mystery of Mew
Description
Lucario and the Mystery of Mew, the eighth
Pokémon movie, ranks as one of the best features in this popular franchise.
Director Kunihiko Yuyama and writer Hideki Sonoda sensibly keep the adventures
and threats to a scale that’s appropriate for the characters. (The first
movies put the world at risk, and while Ash Ketchum is a good kid, he’s not
someone who can credibly save the planet.) Ash, Brock, Max, and May journey to
Cameron Palace for a tournament that celebrates the valor of Prince Aaron, who
saved the realm from destruction 1,000 years ago. Ash and Pikachu win, but the
mischievous Mew kidnaps Pikachu, whom he’s befriended. Prince Aaron’s Pokémon
companion Lucario awakens from the victor’s staff to lead Ash and the gang to
the Tree of Beginning, a mountain that is also a living entity. Ash risks his
life to rescue Pikachu, proving the depth of their friendship to Lucario. The
film includes lots of CG effects, most of which work well with the drawn
animation: the earlier Pokémon films tended to look like two different movies
spliced together.The two-disc set also includes The Mastermind of Mirage
Pokémon: A 10th Anniversary Special. In this 40-minute adventure, Dr. Yung
invites Misty and Ash to take part in a special tournament on his new battle
system. Yung creates formidable Mirage Pokémon from raw data, culminating in a
super-version of Mewtwo, the powerful psychic Pokémon from the first features.
Once again, friendship and kindness triumph over greed and arrogance, although
the special ends with the words, “To be continued…” (Unrated, suitable for
ages 8 and older: cartoon violence) –Charles Solomon
