I liked the movie. As others said, it was refreshing to see a break from the save the Pokemon and see a condensed Pokemon journey instead, with lots and lots of battles, the movie really used all the chances for battles it could. The pacing could have been better, and there were many Diabolus Ex Machina, which resulted in a weird climax. Some montages could've used better.
Verity and Sorrel were fine, it's interesting how they have more backstory and motivations for their goals than other main characters. It seems that they replaced Misty and Brock because of the emphasis on Pokemon bonds, and M&B don't have walking Pokemon as their starters. Not that I agree with that choice through. I'm not impressed with Cross, precisely that lack of motivation is what stopped him from being memorable.
I didn't liked the Ep001 recreation, it lacked that spark and snark from the original. Dexter is truly missed.
The dub music was decent. It was ages better than the Volcanion music, in the sense that it wasn't distracting from the story, but I was hoping for something more special and unique.
The fact that M02 got a scene to itself is awesome.
