I was able to catch Pacific Rim over the weekend. I like the idea that alien monsters are coming in from below the sea instead of above the skies. Movies like this, which include most super hero movies, sometimes give you a bonus scene as a gift if you watch the closing credits. This movie did have an extra scene, but it doesn't make any sense unless you watch the movie first.

Here's the scene after watching the initial closing credits.

I thought the movie was pretty cool. I certainly saw a lot of influence from Godzilla, a lot of anime shows and maybe even a little Power Rangers for their 'Megazords'. I hope they make the prequel that they wrap up in the first 10 minutes of the movie to get you caught up. I almost would've preferred that as this movie, but, still, maybe worth checking out.
