Pacific Rim


                          In a world where humanity has chosen to fight monsters with monsters ( or robots if you will) ((and I know you will)) we see the events that allow this 20 year threat on earth put to rest.
From same director of Hellboy, we see the first  (hopefully not last) western mecha movie.  Guillermo del Toro gives us a film inspired by his childhood fascinations influences by Japanese anime, and television shows.

This movie is good, I can't say I was disappointed, I can't say I was satisfied but I was thoroughly fed in action and excitement wise. I Hope this movie gains enough revenue to get a sequel, because I think the American Film Industry can use more of these types of movies. No, I don't mean towering robots fighting monsters. But I mean movies that take such foreign ideas and the film maker is so inspired by, that they put heart in to there film inspired by their childhood nostalgia. This movie is just a perfect example of this, and bad example would be the 1998 Godzilla with simba, I mean Matthew Broderick . This movie "Makes This Work."
