Title: Adults say: 25 minutes too long
Review: I have two small boys, and I regularly watch the TV episodes with them. I even like them. (The episodes, that is. I love my boys - for this reason, we saw the movie in the theater.)The "feature" portion of this movie is too long - the plot would have been fine in a shorter episode. As it was, it was padded out and I just kept wishing it was over. Plus, Ash gets turned to stone (and comes back to life.) This didn't seem to traumatize my kids - but watch out for anybody that takes this too seriously.The cartoon "short" at the beginning is entertaining assuming you can tolerate the lack of dialog. Several times the short is padded with images of dancing pokemon - my kids loved this, I found it nearly pointless. Still, if you like silent films, this might be for you. I liked it better than the feature.If you haven't taken your kids to see this already, you dodged the bullet - don't bother getting your own copy - I'm sure they can watch it at their neighbor's house.
