Anime ripoff.

I'm excited about the super ticket but cineplex already fucked it up with their lack of mobile sites when eblasting that shit.

Wow! The online reviews for this movie are stellar! What about the TRIBEr reviews? Any of you seen it?

A friend went and saw it last night and he came into work today with three points:

- The other robots are not in it enough
- All the monsters, despite looking slightly different, fight the same
- Giant fighting robots break too easily

he gave 3/5

I will see it but I do not have hopes of having my fanboy hunger satisfied.

Haven't seen it yet, but Gian Ghomeshi recently interviewd the director (Guillermo del Toro) if you'd like to get more info.

Online reviews are stellar. I heard a movie reviewer critique on CBC radio this morning, the woman was practically raving about it and said that this one is worth 3D IMAX.

Friend dragged me to see the 3D IMAX version. We got seats too close to the screen. It was like being in a fish bowl. The movie was plotless, dull and noisy. After about half an hour, it was also incredibly nauseating.

Don't get me wrong. I love this genre. So, instead of rating this film, I'll group it with similar films for comparison.

Shit Movies
Starship Troopers
Independence Day
Pacific Rim

Great Movies
Alien
Terminator
Matrix

I saw the trailer for this when seeing Superman... Is this some Voltron / Grendizer shit? But like real life movie style?

Just checking...

This was great but very b-list casting. Except the Asian chick who was awesome.

If you want robots vs monsters you won't find a better movie.

WTF?!?

Starship Troopers is amazing!

(the sequels are shit, but first one is wicked)

I'm stoked to see Pacific Rim. I'll check an ultraAVX show this week.

I loved this movie so much and now I'm going to go to bed and hopefully dream that I am spooning a giant jaeger on top of the carcasses of several kaiju.
