Amazon.co.uk Review
The fifth Pokémon movie takes Ash, Misty, Brock, and Pikachu to the city of Altomare, a thinly disguised Venice guarded by the shape-shifting Pokémon Latios and Latias. Two new agents of Giovanni's, Annie and Oakley, are out to capture these rare Pokémon--reducing Team Rocket to the role of spectators. Latios and Latias are linked to an elaborate, computer-generated mechanism that defends the city, controls the tides and brings fossil Pokémon back to life. Ash and Pikachu foil the evil plan with some help from Misty, Brock, and Bianca, a girl who lives in Altomare with her kindly grandfather. The contrived story suggests that as far as features are concerned, the Pokémon franchise has pretty much run dry. --Charles Solomon

Synopsis
All the action-packed excitement you experienced in the cinema comes home in this dazzling full-length motion picture that introduces Latios and Latias--two brand-new Pokémon stars who possess remarkable powers. Join them, along with all your favourite characters, on the greatest Pokémon adventure ever. In a magical water city of canals and mazes, Ash, Pikachu and the rest of the gang face off against a slick pair of thieves who plan to steal an awesome and dangerous jewel guarded by Latios and Latias. To save the city from total destruction, our heroes must defeat the evil duo and overcome impossible obstacles...but time is running out. Packed with nonstop thrills, awe-inspiring animation and extraordinary characters, Pokémon Heroes is a movie adventure you’re sure to cheer!

5.0 out of 5 stars Heroic Exploits, 20 Jun 2005
By G. Bright "chronically sedulous" (Derbyshire, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
A considerable improvement from the previous Pokemon movie in the series, Pokemon Heroes : Latios and Latias focuses on the offshore island of Alto Mare (design nicely inspired by Venice) and its heritage; The Soul Dew, a powerful object which has kept water flowing to the island and the two Pokemon Latios and Latias who are Alto Mare's guardians.

Naturally with such rare Pokemon and items floating about its no wonder Team Rocket want in on the action. And they make their entrance in the form of agents Annie and Oakley, fashionable femme fatales with a penchant for power and priceless jewellery. Also the first time, I might add, that the series featured a Team Rocket duo with two women.

A dark scheme unfolds unbeknownst to Ash and friends who are coincedentally messing around Alto Mare having a good time as usual. Sooner or later the paths of good and bad collide directing Ash to once again play his part in helping those in need (and running away very fast from a zombie Kabutops and Aerodactyl)

What was the most memorable difference with this particular movie was the water effects used and the precision they had been blended with the drawn animation. Other CG effects during the film such as the flying craft Annie and Oakley used were also done very well. The soundtrack had a couple of memorable pieces but nothing too stirring.

Overall, an addition to the Pokemon collection well worth seeing...even if Jessie, James and Meowth don't find themselves a particularly interesting part in it.

Just don't forget to keep your box of tissues handy.

4.0 out of 5 stars Ash is Back, 16 Jan 2006
By M. G. Hatfield "trekle5" (North Wales UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Ash and Misty take part in a race where Pokemon trainers who have water types has the Pokemon pull them around the course.
This movie is OK but I think they could now change the team to the team in the new series of Pokemon which are Ash, Brock, May and Max.
Team Rocket don't really feature in this movie it's more like freelance who are working for there own intrests.
I would rather see the normal Team Rocket foul up again.

1.0 out of 5 stars Do not buy this film!
Do not even bother with this film; the animations are dire, the special effects are awful and the voice recordings should never have existed! Keep away from this film! Read more
