The movie is back. AMC non-3D version.
In a word, the plot is simple and bloody, the ideology is brainwashed, but the technical level is outstanding. Robots are cool,
monsters !

Plot: It can be summed up in one or two sentences, the kind that is childish. It's a little more complicated
than , but it's basically the same way.

Ideology: The main theme of American imperialism is a brainwashing film. It expresses the correctness and necessity of the leadership of the US-Japan alliance in the
Pacific Rim . The Chinese and Russian robots were vulnerable and defeated early in the morning. Australia
is close to the United States and needs American help and sacrifice to save its life. Japan is a woman, and she was weak from the beginning.
The black American uncle rescued her from the pain and raised her. In the end, she had to follow the white American male closely to achieve the final
victory. Characterization: Scientists are weak, neurotic, second-class disabled (a short man and an ugly man, no wonder the American farts
are so miserable), Asians are timid and selfish (the monsters attacked and they pushed the
scientists to the air-raid shelter first, but others came Those who defend hongkong), American black men can be sacrificed, American
white men are powerful and heroes, and they will eventually be rewarded with
beauty .

Technology: Every Monster vs Robot is a climax, dizzying and heart-pounding.
Various abilities of robots and various ways of death of monsters are quite enjoyable. In particular, the fights basically take place in the dark night and heavy rain, and the lighting requirements
are quite high, but there is never a time when the black and smeared can't be seen clearly, but every time it is like fireworks, it will
be a leftover in terms of visual effect. down works.

Pacific Rim quotes

  • Raleigh Becket: This is worth fighting for. We don't have to just obey him.

    Mako Mori: It's not obedience, Mr. Becket; it's respect.

  • [first lines]

    Raleigh Becket: [narrating] When I was a kid, whenever I'd feel small or lonely, I'd look up at the stars. Wondered if there was life up there. Turns out I was looking in the wrong direction. When alien life entered our world, it was from deep beneath the Pacific Ocean. A fissure between two tectonic plates. A portal between dimensions. The Breach. I was fifteen when the first Kaiju made land in San Francisco.

    [pause]

    Raleigh Becket: By the time tanks, jets and missiles took it down, six days and 35 miles later, three cities were destroyed. Tens of thousands of lives were lost. We mourned our dead, memorialized the attack, and moved on. And then, only six months later, the second attack hit Manila.

    Newscaster: [on TV] The acid factor of the Kaiju blood creates a toxic phenomenon known as Kaiju Blue

    Raleigh Becket: Then the third one hit Cabo. And then the fourth. And then we learned this was not gonna stop. This was just the beginning. We needed a new weapon. The world came together, pooling it's resources and throwing aside old rivalries for the sake of the greater good. To fight monsters, we created monsters of our own. The Jaeger program was born.
