"Detective Pikachu" 4 points I remember! I have read this script! At that time, the name was "Crazy Animal City"

-----split line-----

In my opinion, this is actually a very mediocre movie. As long as the Hollywood assembly line products are watched a little more, it is not difficult to see how this old-fashioned narrative is constituted. The idea of ​​this Pokémon is the same as that of the year. Like "Ghost in the Shell", it uses a Hollywood team to shoot a veteran IP. This May, there is also a live-action version of "Aladdin" that is also a continuation of the old IP. In fact, it can be seen that Hollywood's original ability is really declining.

When I was watching it, I felt that some scenes of this "Pikachu" even copied "Zoo City". The first time the male protagonist went to Lyme City was the same as the first time the rabbit went to the "Zoo City". The storyboards are all copied over. Such speculation is not groundless. We can find that even the important investigation of Pokémon Going Crazy is exactly the same as that of the Capital Zoo. The irritable son and the kind father are not the Mayor of Lion and Mayor of Goat, but the goal of the villain in the end. I couldn't copy it, so I had to make up one in order to merge with Pokémon to heal my disability.

Then this "Pikachu" is much worse than "Zoo City" in terms of plot and suspense, and it is not as ambiguous as "Zoo City".

The purpose of the villain is also a mystery. Why should people become Pokémon? This is really unreasonable. Obviously human beings have domesticated Pokémon and existed as Pokémon trainers, so why is it necessary? What about fusion? Then only the villain needs to merge to change the disability. However, it is completely meaningless to let everyone merge. It is better to set up the villain to rule the world.
