Review:A huge rim has been found on the Pacific from which some huge alien monsters emerge from the sea (something like godzila). The monsters (Kaiju) are killing thousands of humans and destroy cities in their path with only one goal to destroy humanity. After a huge effort and resources, the military has managed to kill the first kaiju that emerged from the sea but it wasn't enough. Something else had to be done or humanity would be exterminated. So as the lead actor states in the beginning of the film (with his deep voice) humans built monsters of their own. They created some really huge robots called Jaegers(hunters) in order to battle the alien threat more effectively. So these robots start to fight with the alien monsters and a new era begins for mankind as the Jaegers and their pilots give hope to humanity. But there were some problems because one human brain could bear the load (the Jaeger pilots started having problems ). So a 2 pilot program was initiated where each pilot would use half his brain but the two pilot brains were working as one. And there our main story begins where the Becket brothers jump (like a boss) in their jaeger in order to confront a kaiju .

The movie is a CGI fiesta and has awesome sound effects. The director has done a very good job by my opinion because some really cool images pass through our eyes and I am sure that computer graphics fans are going to love this movie. The plot has many gaps and its poor (its a bit classic by my opinion). But the action scenes are very good and it is a very good movie so if you don't have something else to watch and you like special effects and CGI go for it. Moving on the cast is not so popular but the actors have done pretty descent job. Here I would like to state Idris Elba oh my god how badass is this guys he has played the Jaeger program general really good see the movie and you will understand. Here I would also like to discuss the name that they gave to the protagonists robot Gypsy Danger come on what kind of name is that (tell us your thoughts about the name in the comments below).


                                                                                   Ga gan gagan

In conclusion its a pretty descent movie with much action for sci-fi fans.Its not something new as it reminded me another version of transformers and definitely power rangers (remember when they created a huge robot with their vehicles and always managed to kill the enemy in the end? Gogo power rangers). The best thing in this movie are the graphics and sound . I haven't seen such graphics since The Avengers Movie. So give it a go and tell us your thoughts about it, it is not going to be a waste of time, if you can see past the gaps in the plot that it has.

                                                      Idris Elba ( Stacker Pentecost) suited and booted
