I watched Pacific Rim today, something which might exist in the "not really a proper tokusatsu" category for many, but I say is close enough!

I liked it! I'd say it was simple, but the amount of passion behind it really elevated the whole experience over generic action schlock. You could tell the people working on it has a lot of love for both monster and mecha media. I'd say the most impressive thing about the movie was how it managed to feel very close stylistically to Japanese tokusatsu, which I think a lot of attempts to pay homage to the genre in America end up failing at. Neat little movie, might give its contentious sequel and the animated series a shot at some point.
