Metacritic ratings of Detective Pikachu:

IGN commented : "Smith's character gives the story a special emotion, while Reynolds (voice of Pikachu) provides a lovable comedic performance in a special way. Although game adaptations have not performed very well so far, this movie has set a very good example."

Note: Metacritic is a website that specializes in collecting reviews of movies, TV shows, music albums, and games. The website will integrate the scores of each review and make an overall score as the score of the project. Among the multiple short reviews of the project, they are arranged from the best score to the worst score. The best review score is green to the lowest review score yellow and red. Therefore, Metacritic's score is also worthy of reference for many people.

Before the release, "Detective Pikachu" seems to have already shown a trend of polarized word of mouth. As a well-known IP with great influence worldwide, I believe that many fans will go to the cinema to watch the movie after the release. As for the quality of the movie, everyone will have their own opinions after May 10th.
