I love the Jeager designs a lot and the art style of the Kaiju. Its not like Transformers where they are trying to make Optimus Prime look as real as possible and falls into the uncanny valley for a lot of people. It is clear cut, colorful and well shot. Granted the sword thing was stupid but they could have explained the non use of the sword as it was a prototype that was being developed. The two pilot thing didn't bother me as well as the intro.

I didn't mind Charlie Day as the scientist, probably since I've seen only a handful of parts of episodes of Its always Sunny. Mako was pretty cool but is it just me or when we first see her, she's super quiet and accent kinda made her hard to hear?

Overall, I liked the movie sure people say it has shallow characters and the sword plothole but I liked the movie a lot. 8/10 Hope it gets a sequel or a prequel or anime or something.

PS, this movie does not rip off Evangelion. Evangelion is about a whiny little bitch of a boy letting the world crumble around him. This is Kaiju punching action. I think the Japanese poster for this movie makes it sorta look like Evangelion with the way the Gipsy Danger looks in that art.

I think the whole sword thing is moot.I could say that when two pilots drift,they use each other's emotional memories,not just any old memories.Emotions are mentioned alot when drifting,it also seems to be an outside thing.Look at all the jaeger pilots.Each pair have the same attitude,except the Striker team,but they share the family bond.

That being said,Mako knowing about the sword and Raleigh not is just a thing.She might have designed it into the redesigned Gipsy and Raleigh only knew about the old design.Also Mako could have hidden that memory from him,making the sword just for her because she was piloting for revenge.

it would be ok,but the reason PR is so successful is because of setting.When I saw the alien world up on the screen,honestly it seemed bland.
