This week we review Pokemon: The First Movie!

A group of scientists create a clone Pokémon they name Mewtwo. However Mewtwo is bitter about his purpose in life and kills all who oppose his self appointed destiny of global domination. Ash, Pikachu, Brock, Misty, and friends are one of the few groups of trainers that are strong enough to uncover what Mewtwo is planning, and learn a lesson about how fighting is wrong... in a franchise completely based on dog fighting. It's nostalgic as hell, and makes little sense. And remember gotta catch 'em all...
