Count me as someone who finds Pacific Rim to be utterly amazing and undeniably fun. Before it's release, I was afraid of what an American rendition of a Toku movie would actually look like, but I was more than please.

I also could not imagine a more perfect director. Del Toro really impressed me with Hell Boy and Pans Labrynth and it really felt like he could do the concept justice. Pacific Rim was a huge hit in Japan too, so it's hard to deny how good of a movie it was.

When the "sequel" came out, I preordered tickets and watched it with my close friend group filled with excitement. Oof what a let down. But it didn't change my thoughts on the original and I'll always love it.

Pacific Rim is great.
