I don't mind CGI if done right but most of the CGI Monster/robot fighting was at night, close and blurry. Trying to save money I guess with these CGI short cuts. Good Science fiction is for all ages and ageless. This film was made for 14 year old boys in 2013. I'm not 14 so I was disappointed. As suspected the Japanese style robots were a rip off Gundam Wing anime series. Now that would make a great CGI movie-wake up Hollywood! I really went to see if any Kaiju would destroy any Pacific Hub islands not just Pacific Rim coastal cities. South Seas Cinema is full of weird monsters, killer trees and mushrooms and so for some morbid reason I love to see Giant monsters or end of the world disasters destroy a Paradisiacal isle - the ultimate irony. See classic Godzilla or Mothra films or 2012 (Waikiki is destroyed by Diamond head erupting) American Godzilla (the giant gecko tramps though Tahiti), Battleship (like Pearl Harbor but instead of Japanese it's an Alien attack on Pearl and it's surrounds), Day After Tomorrow (Hawaii gets wiped out by a killer hurricane) and the newest Godzilla who takes a Waikiki vacay. Ha! Out next year. Anyway only mention of Pacific Hub is the rift the monsters are coming from and that the Human piloted robots (Jaegers) are (according to the computer graphics every where) headquartered in three places (Alaska, Hong Kong and Honolulu) of course only the first two HQs were filmed not Honolulu. No wonder the movie sucked! Just kidding - home boy prejudices. :) Finally the Monsters reminded me of Axora on Dexter's Laboratory which on the same episode had Tiki Torch a superhero from Justice Friends. Isn't there a thread for Tiki super heroes, hope he's included. Anyway del Toro must of been influenced by this cartoon. I stand corrected this is a film not for 14 yr. old boys but for 10 year old boys who watch Dexter's Lab. Kaiju from Dexter's Laboratory: Tiki Torch superhero:
