When legions of monstrous creatures, known as Kaiju, started rising from the sea, a war began that would take millions of lives and consume humanity's resources for years on end. To combat the giant Kaiju, a special type of weapon was devised: massive robots, called Jaegers, which are controlled simultaneously by two pilots whose minds are locked in a neural bridge. But even the Jaegers are proving nearly defenseless in the face of the relentless Kaiju. On the verge of defeat, the forces defending mankind have no choice but to turn to two unlikely heroes—a washed up former pilot (Charlie Hunnam) and an untested trainee (Rinko Kikuchi)—who are teamed to drive a legendary but seemingly obsolete Jaeger from the past. Together, they stand as mankind's last hope against the mounting apocalypse.

I started watching this film with high expectations , they very quickly disappeared. Every character is a bad cliché from 80s B grade action movies especially the Russian crew just think Rocky 2 and you know all you need to know about them . The story is predictable tripe that never leaves you guessing in fact you can tell exactly what is going to happen ages before it does. Finishing this film was a real chore and one I never want to repeat.

Kind of overrated in my eyes. I should love it. Giant Mechs, Kaiju, insane fights. Silly moments with contrast of scale... Everything at first glance seem tailored for my taste. But it just doesn't cluck for me. It just feels unnecessarily slow in the action and the tech feels forced and the characters aren't even 2D they are only a sentence of characterisation. But I am in the minority about this, I know.

Сценарий в духе фильмов 90-х годов не отличается оригинальностью, игра актеров также не особо блещет. Идея с управлением гигантских роботов двумя пилотами кажется странной и нелогичной, а слова о том, что этот "страж" полностью аналоговый, - вообще полный бред. Вообще, фильм снят для азиатов - они любят больших роботов и гигантских монстров (наверное, потому, что сами маленькие). Короче, фильм на один раз, вот только цена непонятно с чего такая огромная.
