Pacific Rim (2013)

Starring: Charlie Hunnan,Idris Elba, Charlie Day, Burn Gorman, Clifton Collins Jr, Ron Pearlman, Rinko Kikuchi
Director: Guillermo del Toro

Premise:
After Earth is attacked by giant beasts from another dimensions, Nations come together to create giant robots controlled by humans to battle the invaders.

My Take:
The story is decent, the acting is great, and the special effects are amazing. But over all I was a little disappointed in the movie. Maybe I expected more from Del Toro as he is one of my favorite directors. Still, it's an entertaining flick.

Rating: In the middle (though a bit underwhelmed)
