Pacific Rim (2013)

With the sequel just around the corner, I guess it’s time to get off my rear end and watch this one.

If a scaly merman is the man of your dreams, this romantic fantasy will fill you to your gills.

Loki gets married and introduces the wife to his creepy, deranged sister. I give the marriage two weeks.

This is a far bigger movie than the previous one, but I quite miss the smallness of that other movie. This one feels a little… hollow.

Now this is an unexpected joy to watch. Action, camp, and attitude in one movie – what’s not to love?

This one gets to the finish line solely by the rule of cool. Its bloated, incessant action scenes can get tedious fast.
