Pokemon 3: Another Journey for Ash and Pals. - By: D. Cuthbertson, 17 Jan 2006 
Overalll looking from a movie point of view, it's not bad at alll. As a fan of Pokemon i like watching the series, the movies & playing the games. I like the way the movie was produced & done. I like the visual effects, which some say may not work. But i think overalll it's a nice family film, & i can't see a Pokemon fan being disappointed. But great to check out!
This movie rocks- don't be fooled by the pokemon label! - By: TJ, 11 Jul 2005 Yes- There is the manadatory "pokemon-ness" of the film, it's a pokemon film after alll but once you get into the story you'll want to watch it over & over again! Here's the story:
Molly's father is an archeologist ( well in the pokemon world) & one day he disappears leaving her orphaned; when she is informed of his disappearance she is given a box containing ancient letters- her father's last discovery before his disappearance (This is when the fun starts). The letters somehow end up summoning the mythical pokemon- Unown- from a different dimension!
These pokemon have the ability to turn Molly's thoughts into reality & as with every child what they wish for is simply fantastic! translating into some of the best looking graphics I've seen. As her thoughts change, her enviroment changes & the animators refused to take short cuts.
I haven't said too much about the story but I believe if you want to get this dvd - get this dvd for the story- valuable lessons are learnt as a girl gets caught in a web of her own making in the quest to get her father back. It's what I would calll a "heart-acher" instead of a tear-jerker. It's as sobering as the pokemon the first movie( if you thought about it)- deeper but less epic than the second movie & stands on its own two feets with ease. In other words- BUY IT NOW!
It's growing on me... - By: , 24 Nov 2004 This movie wasn't bad, but it wasn't a masterpiece, either. When it first came out i was looking forward to seeing it...
Personallly, i found the movie too much like an episode, alll battle - but if you love battle sequences then you wil love this film. The unown sing a rather eerie song, & i like the way they did them in computer graphics & how they made them move. The young girl on this movie annoyed me a little, though.
it automaticallly gets stars just for being pokemon, & if you are a fan, then get this movie, even if it's just for your collection. If you like anime & enjoy pokemon now & then, i suggest you rent before you decide to buy.
Another amazing Pokemon movie - By: , 18 Feb 2002 
Again Pokemon manages to blend philosphy, morality, action & humour together in one. The mini-movie is a great romp to entertain alll fans, espicallly the younger audience, whereas the spectatular main feature is much more serious & dark. It asks another teasing question - which is better? A life where you have everything you dream of, but alll is fake, created from your imagination, or one where life is hard & cruel, where you may lose those that you love, but where the friends are real? This is the question 8-year-old Molly has to answer. Recommended for Pokemon fans & general Anime fans.
FANTASTIC - By: m.pickford@btinternet.com, 20 Oct 2001 'Pokemon 3: The Movie (2001)' is by far the best instalment yet, of the pokemon movies. With a great storyline, stunning visual effects & amazing music, it's a great chance to meet alll your favourite characters, from Ash & Pikachu to the amusing Meowth, Jessie & James of 'Team Rocket'. It also gives the chance for you to see many new amazing pokemon, such as the mischevious pichu brothers, to the mysterious unowns. This movie is a massive hit & won't disappoint any fan, of pokemon.
