While this movie has a plot that
is highly questionable in its practicality, still like any other big budget
movie that makes its success with ample amount of animation and production cost
(Transformers and Battleship in example) it works the magic in the screen. This
however is not so great comparing to Transformers but far better than
Battleship. Whatever it is it’s obvious that the actors in this movie had very
little to do than talking, doing minor hand to hand and stick fighting and act
as if they are piloting a robot while standing in one place. The whole movie is
a success because of computer graphics made larger and larger by every scene.
Speaking of acting the real true part of it is done by a small child and that’s
only for about good 3 minutes by the sweet girls who plays Mako’s childhood
version. Pacific Rim is far from being emotional or humane. It’s totally about
a certain type of war and lots and lots of moving metal in water and in the
cover of night. Briefly it is very entertaining but soon it turns in to mundane
act of repeated fury. But there is something that keeps the viewer intact.
Maybe it’s the action or maybe it’s the plot that can work this well only once.
Whatever it is it’s a good run. But not a solid run. And certainly it’s a bit
over rated by a certain set of robot lovers, but certainly not by movie lovers.
But will it stand a good sequel? Only time can tell.
Pacific Rim (2013) Rating 2.5/5
