Detective Pikachu is surprisingly well-made. Sure, there are some pretty good video-game movies. I saw Prince of Persia and Assassin’s Creed in theaters and genuinely couldn’t tell you one thing about them other than the fact that Jake Gyllenhaal made it just under the wire of not being called out for playing a person of color. The Tomb Raider films are more or less second-rate National Treasure films, which themselves are more or less third-rate Indiana Jones films. movie is, at best, a bizarre sci-fi film that uses a few names from the game and barely anything else. Once maligned as one of the worst video-game movies ever made, it’s now still maligned as one of the worst video-game movies ever made. It’s hard to imagine it’s been 25 entire years (a quarter century!) since such a gem was introduced to the public.
