#Movies: Pacific Rim Review: "It was awesome!"

Pacific Rim drops us in the last days of the Kaiju war, a battle between man and giant monster that's been escalating for the previous decade. The bulk of the early portion is spent in a base housing the last remaining Jaegers (giant robots for fighting said giant monsters) and their crews.

Pacific Rim is an incredible spectable to watch in IMAX 3D. Director Guillermo Del Toro has achieved his goal of bringing live action giant robots vs monsters to the big screen in an epic way! My only wish is that more screen time could have been given to the other Jaegers in the story. But even at over 2 hours, the gigantic battles and believable world-building only leaves me wanting more!

Pacific Rim was a fun ride and del Toro knew exactly how to deliver a gritty, loud, and engaging film with some hints of casual drama, albeit the latter aspect was rather weak.

The Giant Monsters Vs. Giant Robots film we've been waiting for! Guillermo Del Toro delivers a big screen spectacle to behold, but also delivers a film that is emotionally hallow. The script has tons of flaws and all, but I had a damn good time seeing this film!

This is one of those few movies where in I felt like, damn, I should've watched it in imax or 3d. Best visual effects ever.

It's not a bad movie... Despite the poor dialogue and predictable payoff... I had a lot of fun, it's a very entertaining movie, a little dark though!

Pacific Rim is a typical block buster CGI film. The action sequences were amazing. The only problem with this film is the use of 16:9 aspect ratio format to present the film which make it too much close up, at some point we don't know what is going on during the fight scenes.
