    Del Toro’s fascination for monsters is yet again brought alive on screen like magic, bringing out the child in us and making us believe them blindly.

    The movie is one of the best in recent times. Don’t think twice.

  • Load yourself with ample popcorn, get comfy and marvel at Del Toro’s ground breaking VFX as Pacific Rim sets a new benchmark in film making.

  • This is possibly the best and the grandest belated gift a man can offer his childhood. Do yourself a favour.

  • Stripped down, this movie is essentially about giant robots and giant sea monsters bashing each other up.

  • Nicely shot, much of it against the neon streets of Hong Kong where the film’s latter portions are staged, Pacific Rim is the kind of film that combines the Hollywood blockbuster aesthetic with a real love for Asian monster mythology. I’m going with four out of five. It’s more enjoyable than everything else Hollywood has thrown our way this summer.
