Just saw Pacific Rim and it was really stupid. I understand you can't expect much from a high concept of giant robots vs. giant monsters, but did it really had to have so many cliches between fights? And so many obnoxious characters? What happened to the story, which I hear Guillermo talking about often, how important the story is in the mist of all the cg and ****.
I have loved del Toro's movies up until this movie. This is his worst one by far. Not saying the action wasn't entertaining and even scary, but the story was lame and so full of cliches.
So anyway, if sequel is made I hope it will be a better story and a better even acting-wise then this pile of kaiju crap, as they say.
