Pacific Rim (2013)
6/10
Great idea... just missed the mark
1 July 2016
The idea was fresh and different. Aliens from beneath, giant robots with their own special abilities that can defeat said giant aliens from the depths.

It was all perfectly poised to be a movie with a difference...

However, it was let down dramatically with its mediocre acting from the majority of the leading cast (excluding Idris Elba obviously) including a couple of fellow Australians which ensured a few cringe worthy moments of unrefined jargon.

The graphics were great and the fight scenes were enjoyable. There were some comical moments by the supporting cast that cut the constant tension of global annihilation.

While the story line was predictable, there were a couple of twists to keep you on your toes!

Enjoyable, but nothing spectacular
22 June 2013
Good story, if a little bit uninspired. Some good moral points and impressive twists. As far as animations go, quality is right up there and an interesting ideas on how extra terrestrials could look. great variety in shape and sizes as well as a believable planet network. enjoyable graphics and great voice acting with a few celebs Took me forever to figure out who one of the characters were! but got there in the end. Nothing extra ordinary about it, some good takes on human way of life for the adults to chuckle at. All in all an enjoyable movie, and while its not up with the best animations i've ever seen i certainly enjoyed it and will recommend it to any kid/kid at heart who likes scifi!
