Sometimes you just want to shut your brain off and watch giant robots beat the crap out of monsters. You kinda get that in 2013's American science fiction monster film, Pacific Rim.
Story by Travis Beacham, who co-wrote the screenplay with Director and producer Guillermo del Toro. Starring Charlie Hunnam as Raleigh Becket, Idris Elba as Marshal Stacker Pentecost, Rinko Kikuchi as Mako Mori, Charlie Day as Dr. Newton Geiszler, Ron Pearlman as Hannibal Chau, and many more
With a budget of $200mil, it made $411mil in the box office. Currently an 6.9 on IMDb.
When we spun the wheel on the category Creature Features and landed on Pacific Rim, our average nostalgia score came out to a 6.7
----------
If you haven't heard, we're going to come back in 2023 with a new format to decide once and for all who has it right: The People or The Tomato? We're comparing the ratings on Rotten Tomatoes from both the critics and the average movie goer to argue who is more accurate. More details to come!
