Pacific Rim Ka0tic: As a war between humankind and monstrous sea creatures wages on, a former pilot and a trainee are paired up to drive a seemingly obsolete special weapon in a desperate effort to save the world from the apocalypse. Stars: Charlie Hunnam, Idris Elba and Rinko Kikuchi Saw this with the GF tonight,we both really enjoyed this,tis a bit like transformers meets godzilla  Well worth the price of a movie ticket,try and see it in 3D on the big screen,i highly recommend this 8/10   xox G xox: 8/10 were the two of you drunk lolsss Seen this one in NZ in 3D with my Mum (her pic) Id give it a 6.5/10 It was entertaining enough.  Bell214: Pacific Rim is a massive box office flop, but, as xox G xox said, "it was entertaining enough. I'll give it 5/10. (See: http://www.nbcnews.com/entertainment/pacific-rim-fails-save-summer-box-office-6C10620418) What I find amusing is this: Errors in geography... "During the kaiju attack on Sydney, the kaiju attacks the city from the wrong direction. If it was coming from the ocean, it should pass the Sydney Opera House before reaching the Harbour Bridge - however, the shot of the kaiju attacking the city shows it bursting through the wall built behind the Harbour Bridge, with the Opera House framed in the foreground of the shot. Similarly, if the wall built to protect the city was constructed behind the Harbour Bridge, it would leave most of the city's Eastern Suburbs and Central Business District wide open to attack from the ocean."

(http://www.space.com/21990-giant-robots-possible-pacific-rim.html) Ka0tic: Just downloaded pacific rim and watched it again and this time around the kaiju attacks from the right (pacific ocean side),they must have reshot the that scene after realising their error Bell214: This is amusing. Chinese Army claims Pacific Rim is American propaganda "You might have thought Pacific Rim was just a cool movie about mechas fighting giant monsters, but actually you missed its true purpose as pro-U.S. propaganda. Writing in a Chinese military newspaper, a Chinese officer explains the secret imperialist message of Guillermo del Toro's movie. Pacific Rim "exported the U.S.'s rebalancing of its Asia-Pacific strategy," according to Zhang Jieli's article in the People's Liberation Army Daily. Pacific Rim has become one of the most popular movies in Chinese history, grossing over $100 million in China alone. So perhaps it's understandable that the Chinese military is concerned that the movie represents a subtle critique of China's territorial ambitions in the South China Sea." "According to the Hollywood Reporter: "The decisive battle against the monsters was deliberately set in the South China Sea adjacent to Hong Kong," Zhang said. Beijing has territorial disputes with most of its neighbors in the South China Sea. "The intention was to demonstrate the U.S. commitment to maintaining stability in the Asia-Pacific area and saving mankind... "Soldiers should sharpen their eyes and enforce a 'firewall' to avoid ideological erosion when watching American movies," Zhang warned."
