It isn't the best film ever by any means.

It sure as hell is the most awesome film ever by light years.

It is awesome layered on top of awesome fueled by a meth/coke concoction like nothing else before. If you have ever liked robots, mechs, or monster movies/cartoons at any point in your life...go see this. I am so freaking jealous of my 4 year old for this film existing in her pre-teen life. I would be a different person today if I had Pacific Rim and not the trash that the US version of Godzilla was.

Go see it.

Solid plot, and some great visuals. A real popcorn actioner. Also, if you thought Ironman 3 was pandering to the East with it's separate 'Chinese version,' Pacific Rim will please with a script loaded with ideals like honour, respect, family values, commitment, cooperation, etc. Hell, our heroes didn't even kiss at the end.

Just to name a few cliches that movie consist of:
:spoilers:
Noble leader with skeletons in the closet.
Handsome and skillful heroes.
Love story.
Funny and idiotic scientists making an important discovery.
No gore.
Scene with a crying child.
Father-son relationship.
"Oh, we have a superweapon" scene.
The loss of family member scene.
A pictureque criminal character.
A drop of tears scene.
Brutal russians, looking like Roxette and Billy Idol combined.


But... special effects and fast rhytm are able to pull out that movie from abyss of idiocy.
Still fun to watch.

GDT went out of his way to make this as insanely awesome for his 12 year old inner self. That's why some of the lines, and actions are clearly "because, movie". There are a bunch of little nods, not only to old school giant monster/robot movies, but to anime. He achieved EXACTLY what he was going for. If you didn't like it, that's a shame. Marvel/DC doesn't really hit the same itch with their crop of super heroes as this film would. This movie IS going to influence this generation of kids, and the next.

With all do respect....Avengers blows this movie out of the water. The Ironman movies are great....granted #3 was a bit off. And on pins and needles to see the New Thor in Nov....Even Cap Murica was on par if not a bit better because of the story line.

I stand by my B....downfall was actors and plot/character (or lack of) development...fight scenes and special effects A+..

WElls it is kind of hard to beat RDJ self centered egotistical performance. Still, I think Avengers would have been better if Agent Romanoff aka that girl with two glocks and the guy with Bow and Arrows got tossed aside.

In defense of the big giant robots. The planes didn't appear to do much damage to the smaller monsters....as the robots had trouble with the bigger oness using their plasma cannons. I'm not sure why they felt they needed to fly within claw distance but whatever. The movie was good. I would have liked to see more build up, especially as people reacted to the first wave of monsters. I didn't like the scene's on the alien homeworld, it looked to much like ID4. The movie played out like many Japanese cartoons...same humor...same vehicles and big robots. Solid B
Title: Re: Pacific Rim Movie - Good or bad? Reviews?
Post by: Kwon_2 on July 17, 2013, 01:44:04 PM
Solid B

Could have been an A if the movie was longer, and had more character development. (on the Kaiju)


Would have been better if SPOILER: the monsters weren't related/constructed but recruited from different parts of the galaxy and each one had a more distinct look, instead of everyone of them having that blue glow and rubbery skin.

If they had been as different from eachother as King Ghidora (Kinky Dora) and Gigan for example



Gigan (Can spot Gary Goodridge and Ray Sefo here.. :D)


Loved Guillermo Del Toros tribute to Ebirah though!

That was then.

http://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansites/scifimediazone/news/?a=83487

GODZILLA EXCLUSIVE: "The Event" at SDCC

Interview conducted by and copyright Edward Gross

Located on J Street between seventh and eighth, the set-up is more about celebrating the history of Godzilla. Once you get past an exterior sign warning about it being a "Radioactive Strike Zone," you're in an area of images, memorabilia and large Godzilla models (none, it should be pointed out, from the new movie). From there, you're ushered into a chamber filled with workers and computer consoles, the monitors of which seem to be tracking....something. Presumably Godzilla. Then warning klaxons sound and you're ushered into an elevator that brings you to floor just below the rooftop. There is rumbling, shaking and it all culminates with the image of Godzilla passing you on the street "outside," turning to peer in the window, failing to see you and moving on - but NOT before giving off the traditional Godzilla roar.

All in all, pretty cool, as was the opportunity to catch up with Barnaby Lee, a lifelong Godzilla fan and member of the Legendary team who helped pull together this particular exhibit.

SCIFI MEDIA ZONE: What's your role in all of this?

BARNABY LEGG: I'm part of the Legendary team. I don't want to suddenly become the figurehead of this; there's been a huge team working on this project.

SCIFI MEDIA ZONE: Right now, though, they're making you the figurehead.

BARNABY LEGG: I guess you're right. You can say that I headed up the fan experience here. I'm a passionate Godzilla fan, as everybody is at Legendary, so I've probably taken the lead in terms of trying to make this the most powerful gift possible for the fans.

SCIFI MEDIA ZONE: Were you in charge of coordinating all of this?

BARNABY LEGG: To a certain extent, yes. As you can probably tell, something like this is so much more than one person. We've got dozens of people behind the scene making everything run and go. It has brought together just a killer team of artists, designers, collectors, and researchers , all in partnership with Gareth and the guys who are making the Legendary film. We just want to make sure that it's something all of Legendary can feel proud of and, hopefully, fingers crossed, something that is getting the fans excited as well.

SCIFI MEDIA ZONE: Since you're such a Godzilla fan, I wonder if any of the things on display are from your collection.

BARNABY LEGG: There are a couple of pieces that are mine. There are a lot of comics in there that are mine and I have specified that I want them back! We reached out to a lot of different people, a lot of different private collectors, doing a lot of buying online, we took a couple of trips to Tokyo to acquire some pieces. It's been a really exciting experience just assembling the ultimate Godzilla treasure trove.

SCIFI MEDIA ZONE: What is it about Godzilla that appeals to you so strongly and why after all these years do you think the public is still fascinated by him?

BARNABY LEGG: Great question. I guess I have to answer two ways. Firstly, I think you have to accept that Godzilla is a lot of things to a lot of different people. Some people prefer that ferocious, terrifying, primal monster. Other people love that more whimsical, savior of mankind side to his personality - using the word whimsical tactfully there, because I know some people think that it gets a little silly in places. For me, I've always loved the spirit of the original; that true fear that the character kind of created. In summary, I just think it's the attitude. He just expresses that anger at the world that we all feel, though that is just my personal feeling. I think Godzilla is many things to many different people.

SCIFI MEDIA ZONE: The last time we had a Godzilla film in the U.S....well, it wasn't really a Godzilla film. Yet people seem excited about this new production.

BARNABY LEGG: I think he's one of those icons. I think it's something we realized even more in our research; that he is indelible in the same way that King Kong is indelible. Or Batman is indelible. He's so embedded not just in our popular culture, but in our psyches that I don't think he'll ever truly go away. People have their own take on it, but ultimately the icon endures.

This movie has been airing on HBO for the last few weeks. Good timing for Godzilla.

Cancel the Apocalypse and Call a Meeting at the ‘Pacific Rim’ Conference Table

As the sales of Jaeger and Kaiju toys and t-shirts out there demonstrate, fans still harbor a lot of love for Guillermo del Toro’s Pacific Rim. One group of fans who just wrote a massive love letter to the giant monster fight flick are the folks at L.A. video game studio Robotoki. Working with Tom Spina Designs, they’ve created a nine-hundred-pound, twelve-foot-long coffee table that’s set atop a massive Jaeger arm. And they were kind enough to share with us the photos and video below (with its adorable 8-bit version of the Pacific Rim theme music), in which they unpack and assemble this bad boy in their offices… It’s enough to make me wish a Jaeger would fall out of the sky and land in back of my house so I could start making my own Pacific Rim furniture. But if that happened, then the Kaiju would wipe out mankind, and that ain’t happening. Not on my watch.

I watched the film again on HBO and I found that I enjoyed the film more the second time.  The plot is filled with cliches but I tried not to think about them and just enjoy the action.

Guillermo Del Toro Announces Pacific Rim Sequel Release Date

Earlier this month, word broke that Zak Penn was joining forces with Guillermo del Toro to work on developing the script for Pacific Rim 2 and bring more Jaeger vs. Kaiju action to our screens. So often such reports don’t end up going anywhere other than limbo, but Legendary has just announced the new Rim film will arrive on April 7, 2017.

Speaking in the video statement, del Toro says that fans will be kept entertained by the continuing comic book series and an animated show that will follow the adventures of the monster-punching team. The enthusiastic director also mentions that original writer Travis Beacham will also be involved, presumably squeezing in time to help out between developing his various TV projects.

“The characters I love will return,” del Toro tells BuzzFeed in a new statement. “Raleigh, Mako, Newt, Gottlieb and who knows, maybe even Hannibal Chau – but we are taking them into a fresh territory that will display amazing sights and battles. The first film set the stage and now we’re ready to have a blast.” No deals have been set with the cast yet, but given that the release date is still three years away, there is at least time to figure everything out. And it’s not like Guillermo won’t be busy – he’s editing horror movie Crimson Peak, which is scheduled to land here on October 15 next year.

The human "actors" are so dreadful in this yet all the cgi monsters and robots give great performances.

It was a bad movie.  A very, very, bad movie.  Stooooopid bad.  So bad that were it not in my best interest as a genuine humanitarian in warning others just how bad this film was, I would never admit to having seen it.

 And by "bad", I mean the traditional reading of the word, not the "we be bad" version.    It's bad in the same way Ronnie Coleman is a tub of blubber fatso now, bad.

Critical response

Pacific Rim received generally positive reviews from critics. Review aggregation website Metacritic gives a rating of 64 out of 100 based on reviews from 48 critics, which indicates "generally favorable" reviews.[109] The review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes reported a 72% approval rating with an average rating of 6.7/10 based on 253 reviews. The website's consensus reads, "It may sport more style than substance, but Pacific Rim is a solid modern creature feature bolstered by fantastical imagery and an irresistible sense of fun."[110]

The Daily Telegraph's Robbie Collin awarded the film five stars out of five, likening the experience of watching it to rediscovering a favorite childhood cartoon. He praised del Toro for investing his own affection for the genre and sense of artistry into the project in such a way that the viewer found themselves immersed in the film rather than watching from afar, noting the director had catered to younger and older audiences alike and expressed surprise that the film could rise above the sum of its parts.[111] Todd McCarthy of The Hollywood Reporter gave a positive review, describing the film as the sum of the potential every monster film had ever tried to fulfill.[112] Lou Lumenick of The New York Post gave the film four stars out of four, and said it had "no shortage of brains, brawn, eye candy, wit and even some poetry", praising the "clean and coherent" action sequences and the "terrific chemistry" between Hunnam and Kikuchi.[113] Drew McWeeny of HitFix highlighted other aspects of the film, paying particular attention to the production and art design. He also praised the cinematography for "perfectly capturing" the film, and described the score as "ridiculously cool".[114] Rolling Stone's Peter Travers called the film "the work of a humanist ready to banish cynicism for compassion", saying that del Toro "drives the action with a heartbeat".[115] Keith Uhlich of Time Out called the film "pure, pleasurable comic-book absurdity", and noted that del Toro had lent the proceedings a "plausible humanity" lacking in most of summer 2013's destruction-heavy blockbusters. He said the Kaijus' civilian victims make a "palpably personal impression", deeming one scene with Mako Mori "as mythically moving as anything in the mecha anime, like Neon Genesis Evangelion, that the director emulates with expert aplomb."[116] The Village Voice's Stephanie Zacharek called it "summer entertainment with a pulse", praising its "dumbly brilliant" action and freedom from elitism, but noted the story is predictable and suggested del Toro's time would be better spent on more visionary films.[117] Angela Watercutter of Wired called it the "most awesome movie of the summer", a "fist-pumping, awe-inspiring ride", and opined that its focus on spectacle rather than characterization "simply does not matter" in the summer blockbuster context.[37] Richard Roeper gave the film a B, commenting that either the Jaegers or Kaijus "can take down any of the Transformers."[118] Leonard Maltin gave the film two-and-a-half out of four stars, calling it "three-quarters of a really good movie that doesn't know when to quit."[119]

Pacific Rim: The Black




If it is set in Australia the people should have accents that fit.
