Today, we are canceling the apocalypse!" -
Stacker Pentecost
Why watch this? Any
fan of Godzilla or Transformers will love this robot-kaiju slug-fest!
Plot Summary:
Years ago, Earth faced destruction from a portal opening beneath
the Pacific Ocean, releasing monstrous creatures called Kaiju.
To fight back, humanity built colossal robots known as Jaegers,
piloted by two people who share a neural link to control them.
Now, as the Jaeger program struggles against increasingly
powerful Kaiju attacks, a retired pilot and an untested trainee
must team up for one last, desperate attempt to save the world.

Dad's Preview:
Gigantic monsters are rising from our oceans to wreak havoc on the world.
After years of taking a beating, mankind finally figuring out
ways to fight
back using robots as big as the invading creatures. The plot is
fun to follow, the actors are young and attractive, and the special
effects are next-level. I am really impressed with Idris Elba.
He really carries a persona that lends legitimacy to the films
in which he stars. Keep it up, big guy. |
