forget the Atlantic, only the Pacific Rim matters

Giant robots fight giant monsters in /pacific rim. It's like a Godzilla-transformers crossover. Why hadn't anyone thought of that before?

     When the first trailers for this movie came out, everyone thought it was going to be a boring, plain, $190 million movie. Everyone except for me. First, I noticed that it was directed by the award-winning Guillermo del Toro, then I thought about how no company would spend so much money on a movie that would fail, then I saw the movie, and I knew I was right all along. The story involved so much more than anyone would ever expect, therefore making it so much more fun to watch. I would have liked it even if it was just monsters versus robots, because it would have been very entertaining. The special effects were amazing, and it has to win best special effects in the Oscars, or I'm going to be even angrier than when Transformers: dark of the moon lost to Hugo in that category. The action involved all sorts of punching, shooting, stabbing, slashing, and ferocity that made it exciting. There were some parts that made the story really unrealistic, but it didn't affect my enjoyment of the movie, so I won't go into detail about that. I really liked the way that the names for the monsters was Kaiju, which is Japanese for "strange monster", and the robots were Jaegers which is German for "hunter". There was a whole subject in the movie about how it took two pilots to control on Jaeger, so their entire mind had to be linked to their partner so they would do the same thing at the same time. That also meant their memories had to be linked, so they had to be a perfect match so they could work together well. It was really complicated, so that probably didn't make any sense. The movie also had lots of mystery, so it could be counted as a mystery film. It was such an imaginative topic, but there was too much crazy weird complicated science, so it was hard to follow. B+.

What about world war A through Y?

Who ever thought that zombies could run and jump? Obviously Marc Forster did.                                               

Rarely does anything this original come from one of the most popular fiction themes of the 21st century. Zombies are so popular from the thrilling, scary, and insanely gory walking dead to the hilarious and romantic Warm Bodies, but no one had ever considered that zombies could run, jump, and climb on top of each other like ants. The book of World War Z was like the other normal zombie stories, so the movie of course wasn't very much like the book that shares it's title. I think that this movie is an instant classic. The story was based on a man trying to find a weakness in the virus that was turning billions of people into cannibalistic monsters. I loved the visuals of the zombies climbing all over each other, and jumping onto the low-flying helicopter. While sitting in the theater, the entire time, I felt the suspense creeping up on me every second, and all the action made it hard to stay still. Unlike most zombie stories, there was no gore, or blood gushing everywhere. The overall feeling of the movie was suspense and excitement throughout. Sometimes it was too much, so it gets a B+.
