  Anyone else seen the trailer for this? (I would link it but as I'm on my phone it's a bit of a palaver and I'm sure someone can do that for me lol), usually a fan of Guilermo Del Toro's films but that one I'm in two minds on that one, looks like it's just going to be a big robot and a big creature punching each other for over an hour.

  Yea looks like it might be a bit of a cgi fest with minimal story/plot/script, ive only seen 1 of Del Toros movies Pans Labyrinth thought that was good, weird but good.

  You really should check out his other films if you liked Pans Labyrinth like cronos, hellboy 1 and 2, the devils backbone, they are really good films, he does have a weird style but he does good films (at least I think he is anyway). That is actually in part why I don't see much in Pacific Rim, it seems to lack his usual style and flair.

  i went to see this friday and to be frank it was middle of the road , the special effects youve seen with transformers and the plots predictable . When i saw the original trailer it looked promising . But it falls short . They should have really gone for a big movie version of either neo Genesis Evangaelion or the Gundam Wing sagas .

  This is my personal opinion, CRAPP!!
  It was as if Transformers and Godzilla had a mentally unwell child.
  I honestly found this hard to watch.
  
  DO YOURSELF A FAVOUR AND WATCH SOMETHING ELSE!!!

  Wasn't too bad. Just one of those films for pure "action fun" entertainment. Not to be expected for a really moving or thought provoking experience...

  Lovely picture there clitterbug lol.
  I enjoyed this film, yeah it wasn't the most intelligent film ever but i found it entertaining, the effects were great, had some good action scenes and the characters were interesting enough (Ron Perlman's character was the best one). it's safe to say it probably won't be getting a sequel though, it didn;t flop but it didn't do great considering the budget.

  I have friends who say Pacific Rim is amazing, but they saw it in 3D at the Imax... So they were probably talking about the CGI overload they experienced ;) haha!
  
  Although Pans Labyrinth is a great movie!

  Yeah Pans Labyrinth is an excellent film, and to be honest even though i like Pacific Rim it doesn't come close to being as good as Del Toro's other films, if you like Pans Labyrinth you should check those out, The Devils Backbone, cronos.
