Pacific Rim is goofy. But by no means is it a bad movie. It's a big, dumb, colorful, fun movie that doesn't have an ounce of cynicism in it.
But I'll grant you, it's no Alien Seed.

Yeah, I can read reviews and things, but until I actually see a movie myself, I won't know if I will like it or not...and the box office will already have my money at that point.

If you willingly went to grown ups 2, you deserve what you get.
