The direct sequel to the first Pokémon movie.
Pokémon: Mewtwo! I Am Here follows Mewtwo’s return after the events of the franchise's first feature film. The movie reveals what happened to the legendary Pokémon after he found an isolated place to live in peace alongside the clones he had created. This time, Giovanni discovers clues regarding Mewtwo's whereabouts and launches a new hunt to capture him, aiming to bring him back under his control and turn him into Team Rocket's ultimate weapon.
The idea of showing Mewtwo's fate is interesting. In the first movie, the character undergoes significant growth, moving past his resentment toward humans to seek a path of peace and acceptance. It was natural to wonder what happened after that conclusion, and this special attempts to answer precise…

OG Team Rocket action. I'm a big fan of Giovanni and to just not know about this movie would be a complete missed opportunity. In Mewtwo Returns, Giovanni leads his Team Rocket force with helicopters and machines to attack and control Mewtwo. We see just how evil and ambitious Giovanni is as he is determined to bend Mewtwo's will to his own will even if it would destroy Mewtwo. Just like that Giovanni is such the epic and interesting boss. He is more than after capturing strong Pokémon, Pokémon are only a tool and Giovanni would subdue with power all that will serve his plan to rule the Earth.
The star of this movie is Giovanni, Mewtwo, and also the high rank Team Rocket Grunt Domino. She's hot with the Big R on her chest on the Team Rocket uniform! Her role of playing as undercover was g…

A mediocre TV special.
The death knell was the storyline. After witnessing an epic revenge plot, an epic quest to save the world, and an epic complex story about the Unown, having a plot be a generic "Guy wants to capture Pokemon" plot was extremely underwhelming, and it didn't engage me at all and had several plot holes.
But it wasn't all bad! Mewtwo remained an amazing villain, and his dialogue was outstanding. The animation was good, especially the great ending, and the fights were good throughout (no knock your socks off ones like most of the movies though). There was also some funny bits.
But as a whole, a mediocre movie. However, if you have a greater tolerance for the kind of plot it has, you might get a kick out of it.

This might have been the first Pokemon movie I ever saw. Which, must have been abit confusing for me when I first watched it, since this is kind of a sequel to another Pokemon movie. But, honestly, the movies made up most of the Pokemon watching I ever did(I was more into collecting the cards), other than afew episodes which I was able to watch. My review may not be 100% accurate, since it was quite afew years ago that I watched it, and I watched the English version, which might have been mildly edited, even though I doubt it. So, this is where I first saw the Pokemon MewTwo, known as the strongest Pokemon, atleast I think so. Remember, my memory isn't picture perfectly clear. We are are also introduced to a new bad character, Domino, and while I like her character design and her cool outf…

A good continuation to the first Pokémon movie; they stick to the same themes, music and type of art.
The plot is good, but perhaps a bit weaker than in the first installment.
Same themes are rolled back and forth, over and over: do the copied, cloned Pokémon share the same rights as their original versions? Where do the clones belong? Will they ever be able to live in peace?
As good as that idea is, being repeated over and over really kills it. We got it the first time, now let's move on.
A good watch, definitely worth it. Goes flawlessly with the first movie.
