Review of Pacific Rim (2013) by Michellebird — 14 Aug 2019
Probably every 9-year-old boy's dream movie about giant robots taking on each other. Pacific Rim is a good film and knows what its audience wants. There's brazen action and thankfully none of the Transformers way of showing action where you barely knows who is pounding who.
Plot is basic- giant monstrous sea creatures have risen after long hibernation and we are in their way. To wage the war humans around the world have collaborated to create giant robot suits called jaegers which need a pair of human pilots to run.
The customary get to meet, training and first battle chaos scenes are present though thankfully the human characters are fleshed out well enough you realize they're not just time fillers until the robot mayhem starts.
Idris Elba and Charlie Hunnan are good enough to fit right in and bring a certain likeability while at it. This is good entertainment.(Good action movie with some great sequences).
