Again just my opinion from what I've read and saw. What I can't figure out is why they didn't combine a synergy of forces to defeat the Kaiju, like combining air support with the ground Jaegers. I think this would have been much more effective and safer. Last edited by GordonGekko; 07-20-2013 at 02:32 AM.. |

I wonder if Rinko Kikuchi (hot actress from giant robot movie) is related to Shunshuke Kikuchi (music composer who did a lot of anime work).

The film was decent.
The action was HUGE. Hard to imagine ever seeing action on that scale again. It was so big, in fact, there were times when it was hard to follow. It was also derivative. Felt like an amalgam of all your favorite _______ threatens the world films.

It was meh. Some of the plot was groan inducing bad. I thought the idea of giant robots and monsters would totally outweigh that, but sometimes it really brought the movie down. I was disappointed that they forced a robot monster fist fight so often. Come on.... robot weapons guys, come on....
Spoiler!
More fights, less drama bullshit..

A very fun film. Not flawless... but very fun. probably give it a B+. Somewhat reminiscent of Godzilla meets Ghostbusters. I might go see it again in 3D.
By the way, there are a lot of good one-liners in this movie and many of them can easily lend themselves to drinking games. Where would you rather die? Here? Or drinking Jaeger?! |

I'm sure Del Toro had his reasons for chumping the Chinese and Russian Jaegers. I read he wanted to include a Mexican Jaeger with ex-convict pilots but the idea was cut because he was having trouble juggling all the plots and getting the right characters development time. Fun idea though, maybe in the sequel. |

It has the exact same formula as countless other action movies. The last scene is literally Independence Day with different characters. Posted via Mobile Device |
