Freezing
Ok, first things first, apart from the obvious fanservice and various scenes of nudity within the anime, Freezing has a pretty decent storyline and is great to watch if given the chance.

Pokemon 4ever
Also called ‘Celebi: The Voice of the Forest’, the fourth Pokemon film in the franchise carries a deep environmental message including the option to live in tree-houses and consider time travel as the ultimate power.
Pokemon 3 the Movie
This is my favorite Pokemon movie and most fans would agree with me that it is the best among the original series. A better storyline, beautiful animation, ‘dreamlike’ soundtrack and interesting characters that deliver emotion and intrigue.
Pokemon the Movie 2000
Also called ‘Pocket Monsters the Movie: Revelation Lugia’ and ‘Pokemon: The Power of One” is the second Pokemon feature-length film released in Japan 1999. It complements the Orange Islands Saga (Season 2) of the series and features new Pokemon, including Slowking and the legendary Lugia.
Pokemon the First Movie
I remember seeing this in the cinemas for the first time and this became a part of my childhood. During the 90s, Pokemon was slowly “evolving” into a cultural phenomenon. As a fan of the classic anime series, I was super excited to see this on the big screen and boy, wasn’t such a good film. Seeing it once for the action and seeing it a second time, there is a deep, underlying message about violence and love that is often overlooked.
Paprika
In the near future, a revolutionary new psychotherapy treatment called PT has been invented. Through a device called the “DC Mini” it is able to act as a “dream detective” to enter into people’s dreams and explore their unconscious thoughts. Before the government can pass a bill authorizing the use of such advanced psychiatric technology, one of the prototypes is stolen, sending the research facility into an uproar. In the wrong hands, the potential misuse of the device could be devastating, allowing the user to completely annihilate a dreamer’s personality while they are asleep. Renowned scientist, Dr. Atsuko Chiba, enters the dream world under her exotic alter-ego, code name “PAPRIKA,” in an attempt to discover who is behind the plot to undermine the new invention.
