Yo, Pacific Rim was sooooo animay
but it was damn good, best blockbuster I seen this summer. Invests you in the human characters and their personal struggles, makes you care more about the big robot smashing, and said robot smashing is awesome, coherently filmed and delivered with maximum impact.

Why in Gods name am I laughing so Hard. I am a bad person and im going to Hell.

Let me tell you, I woke up at like 7 this morning so I could hit the road. I'm balling as fuck right now.
j/k. That shit belongs to these fucking banks. My dumbass took out 500k in loans and these fuckers take like 75% of my earnings. I'm just trying to deliver some coal and xboxs to people in need. So between these loans and all my speeding tickets (forreal) and repair bills I stay broke.
With my loan money I bought another cheap ass truck and hired some lameass to drive it. I thought this fool would atleast be pulling in a couple thousand per run, nope, this clown brings me back a few hundred bucks at the most.
The streets are cruel. Folks always trying to cut me off and cause accidents and shit, and apparently no one has insurance cause im always paying for shit. So fuck it, these my roads.
Most the profile pics they let me chose from are whack as hell, but I chose the only one who looks too legit to quit.
Once I hire me some more goons I'm taking over these streets.

Mecha movies have been pretty shit, the bar is not hard to tumble over.
double jump
you haven't lived until a random little kid ask you "how do you make love".
wow a slap of nostalgia right there
Robot jox was my pinnacle for western mecha series As whack as it was. This was pretty damn good. But I have to see it in 3d

I felt the same way, so I went into the movie with low expectations. But after everything was said and done, I was really happy with what Del Toro and co. were able to do, and what they were able to avoid doing. Parallax is right - the standards for what counts as a good mecha movie have been raised.
So damn awesome
Only scene that tops that. How he didn't get an Oscar I will never know. Those screams, shit sounded so real.

Indeed. I'm curious to see what the verdict is.

I didn't enjoy Pacific Rim, action was solid but really sparse, the rest of the movie not so solid.

At least a manslaughter charge is a must, in my opinion. Him getting off scott free would set a catastrophic precedent. It would tell everyone, including the people already looking for an excuse, that killing someone you're suspicious of is okay. All it takes is you being the only person alive to tell the tale.

PR3D> regular. I've seen it twice already. My son went fucking nuts during
at the Hong Kong fight scene. He asked me where was Jackie Chan because "Jackie Chan could have saved all those people.

Matrix Revolutions had great mecha parts and terrible everything else.

I liked Pacific Rim, didn't love it. If was 9 I would have been in love with it.
It was a hair above average IMO. I enjoyed it but I'm not nearly as attached to the areas the film pays homage to as a lot of other people are. The script was mediocre, which was disappointing considering it's the same screenwriter behind the fantastic unproduced script Killing on Carnival Row. Honestly, everything but the action scenes was forgettable, and I fail to see how anyone could give a shit about the characters. I'm actually surprised that the action ended up being the film's strongest point, since IMO, Del Toro's films are typically strong in their script, design and cinematography, and lacking in cohesive and legible action. The acting was a tad bit too overstated, partially due to the horrendous dialog. I found the first 20 or so minutes to be the best part of the film, but unfortunately, the filmmakers weren't able to maintain that duration's quality for long.
I found it to be the very definition of a mindless action film, and while that's a perfectly legitimate field of cinema to embody, the comparisons to Michael Bay aren't exactly unwarranted. I left the theater somewhat entertained, but I'm not sure I'd recommend it to anyone who isn't thoroughly invested within the film's inspirations.

In my mind the golden standard (haven't seen Rim) for mecha in Western cinema is still Empire Strikes Back. It's just not that well-explored as a concept.
