Must Watch: Behind The Scenes Of PACIFIC RIM: "Legendary Set Visit" - Visual Spoilers!
PACRIM is an original movie. Sure giant sea monsters have been done before, but nothing on this scale or with such a human element. The kaijus and jaegers are magificent. I have to go again. It's my favorite movie of the summer and of the year thus far. THE GREAT GATSBY is my highest rated, but PACRIM is popcorn baby! My favorite. I just wish it was shot in native 3D.
Here's the storyline for the movie:
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.
Here's some behind the scenes action from one very compelling moment from PACIFIC RIM (visual spoilers!) and one that I felt they nailed. Very intense. Well done Guillermo!
PACIFIC RIM is playing now! What are you waiting for? See this on the big screen as it was intended to be seen. Trust me.
