Holy shit was this movie awful, the acting is Sand Shark/Sharktopus/Pirahna 3D bad. The acting and the dialogue is incredibly shitty. The cgi is cool, the plot is somehow decent despite having more holes than a swiss cheese.

I honestly think Del Toro just went "meh, who gives a fuck about the dialogue, imma go draw more robots".

A friend of mine writes quirky movie reviews as a hobby, and he did one of Pacific Rim.

But the captain also makes a speech to explain his deeds: Under his rule, no one will be alone. Everyone will fight alongside someone else. They will know they are human because they see each other. Even the scientists are human, who want to learn to think like god & a monster.

Loved the movie. Saw it twice. It knew exactly what it wanted to be as film and delivered, early and often. Also, Ron Perlman is awesome. Can't wait for the sequel.

Loved the movie, got exactly what I expected from it. Biggest complaint was that Gipsy Danger got most (all?) of long fight sequences...would've loved to have seen Crimson Typhoon and Cherno One get more love.


I loved Crimson Typhoon

Watched this movie last week. Enjoyed it a lot! I went in with the idea that its action and that it has a story that won't likely be crazy detailed. Didn't let me down lol. I think those who dislike the movie might have expected too much? my guess at least.

I think the people who are super disappointed with Pacific Rim are the people who came in looking for some sort of deep plot instead of awesome Robot vs. Monster action.

ya agree. It's just an action movie for the most part. No deep plot or anything like that.

I thought the moral of the story was to not cast two blond people with roughly the same height, build, and boxy heads in the same movie.

I enjoyed the movie so much I even went out and bought the book based on it. I really hope they make either a sequel or prequel.

The soundtrack is great! If you want to get pumped for work or a work-out, it's perfect.

On another note, Box Office Mojo says that it's less than 3 million dollars from the 400 million mark. I smell a sequel!

I finally saw the movie after thinking the trailers made it look overly cheesy. I liked it, but with some reservations.

+ Show Spoiler +
I hate how quickly the Cherno Alpha and Crimson Typhoon got taken out. I felt like they both could've had more of the spotlight given their decent careers before the movie began. The Gipsy Danger took way too much of the spotlight in this film.

It was also kind of lame that literally every Jaeger gets destroyed over the course of the movie, but I guess it isn't a bad thing depending on the direction they take in the sequel


I did like how they started the story "as late as possible" into the narrative, after the Kaiju wars began. This movie easily could've been the second or third movie in the series.

I look forward to the sequel.

Transformers, all 3 of them (recent at least), are way better then this piece of trash film i watched the other night. Terrible script/acting, 5 minutes of action in a 2 hour film (there really wasnt a whole damn lot.) and just really lackluster overall, i went in expecting a shitty script but AWESOMEOMGWTFBBQ cinematic fights because of this thread and i was really disappointed.

Also you guys, like 10 pages of "lets do it, together!" when i dont think i would have picked up on it at all because it was so insignificant had you not blatantly raved about it half the thread

Nobody had a problem with the generals (uh..? the black dude.) acting? His fucking speech man. Mako (i guess thats her name, kept thinking FF7 reactor.) was especially bad too. I like the lead actor because im watching SOA right now but the script was pisspoor and made him come off as terrible too when i know he can do better.

Dont even get me STARTED on the robots "control system". It was hard to look at let alone form an opinion on.

The action was few and far between, i enjoyed the stick fighting part but the robot fights were a real let down for me. Shouting "ELBOW ROCKET!!!!!" only to have a still of the elbow for 5 seconds into a crappy sorta-slowmo-but-not punch really sums it up for me.

Thinking about it, the fights were all sluggish as hell and maybe thats what they were going for due to the monsters/robots being mother fucking huge but it did not make for good viewing.

I didnt think i could be disappointed with big robots / monsters but this movie killed my inner child. Which is a real shame
