Pokémon the Movie: Kyurem vs. the Sword of Justice Personal Review


Released on July 14, 2012 in Japan, Pokémon the Movie: Kyurem vs. the Sword of Justice, is the 15th Pokémon anime movie released. This movie features Kyurem, the Boundary Pokémon, as well as Cobalion, Terrakion, and Virizion, the titular "Sacred Swordsmen", and a new Pokémon Keldeo, a training-to-be a "Sacred Swordsmen" and the fourth of the Swords of Justice. I won't be talking about the plots[don't wanna be a spoiler], in case anyone had different opinion than mine.


I find that this movie is quite boring comparing to several previous Pokémon movie, which includes White: Victini and Zekrom, Black: Victini and Reshiram, Zoroark: Master of Illusions and Arceus and the Jewel of Life, which the plot have very exciting adventures and some of it includes wonderful legends and myths of the Pokémon world. Although this 15th Pokémon movie indeed feature several legendary Pokémon, but it lacks the elements of adventure. In my opinion, the movie fails to show the real training Keldeo that have done before challenging Kyurem and after Keldeo's defeat with Satoshi. It would appeal more to the audiences I think. 


In previous movies, the characters and the Pokémons showed rather more hardship to achieve their goals. However, in this movie, the storyline advance very quickly, making the story less interesting. There's other things that are lacking in this movie which I couldn't point out or express. After so long and so many generations or Pokémons, i think Pokéfans would eventually either bored or starting to get bored, thirst for fresh theme and features. That's my opinion, what yours?
