Pacific Rim: Iron Man Meets Godzilla In Guillermo Del Toro Monster Movie

Pacific Rim: Iron Man Meets Godzilla In Guillermo Del Toro Monster Movie - Zennie62 Review http://www.zennie62blog.com/2013/07/12/pacific-rim-guillermo-del-toro-mates-iron-man-and-godzilla-make-a-gem-58261/ There's nothing at all pretentious about Guillermo Del Toro's Pacific Rim. It's what you get when you mix Iron Man and Godzilla, and throw in homage after homage to the great giant monster movies of the past. Pacific Rim is the much-anticipated science fiction movie that had audiences at Comic Con and Wonder Con cheering during every second of action sneak peaks, brought all of that promise home when it was officially released Thursday. The premise of Pacific Rim is simple: in the very near future, the World's major cities are attacked by giant monsters called Kaiju. In order to battle the Kaiju threat, the World's nations banded together and built giant robots to fight them: The Jaeger Program was born. Two pilots controlling one large human-like fighting machine. And all to defend the human race. That's the basic story. What lays behind it is a compelling tale of people overcoming their own personal demons to become eff ective teams, operating the Jaegers to destroy the monsters.
