Drifting with Kaiju. Canceling the Apocalypse. Giant Mechs fighting Giant Monsters, Crazyness but in a Good Way 0
With a simple opening title card explaining the definition of the words Kaiju, Japanese for Great Beast, and Jaeger, German for Hunter. Pacific Rim is off.

It is what it is 2
This movie lacked a serious storyline. The character development was pretty weak, and because of this I had a hard time caring if the humans won or not. It's obvious that the focus was really placed on the action and effects aspect of the movie. I get that that's what they were aiming for, but it was still disappointing. I don't think you need to sacrifice story for action. You can have both, but unfortunately this film does not. It's not as bad as other monster flicks, but once you see it, you...
