I think this is the best movie of the summer. It was amazing. One of the only movies I didn't get disappointed by the end of it. This and Man of Steel and The Conjuring. |

Frankly, there's some really good things about this one but it still has a few problems here and there. One of the biggest issues here is the fact that the battles are far too short and pack way too much into them that there's hardly any chance of seeing what's going on. The realism inherent in the creatures is quite low compared to many other giant monster movies since the creatures are way too active and move way too rapidly for something that size which is emphasized even more in the fighting when they're moving around at such inhuman speeds that there's just a blur of movement and then finally the battle's over. This really renders the battling quite ineffectual in generating the kind of excitement and fun that usually comes in these kinds of movies, even though this makes the spectacle far more engaging with the frenetic action scenes moving this along at a rapid pace. There's so many battles in this that the rapid pace to them starts becoming quite enjoyable with the major-scale city destruction taking place alongside the fighting which is quite fun and exciting throughout, and with the full-scale finale really getting a workout with the main fighting coming through quite well, its got a frenetic finish that places the spectacle of the action in the main slot while generating the high-energy finish needed to make this quite fun. Still, there's a couple more flaws to this which is mostly centered on the utterly dragging human drama that really makes this feel quite a bit longer than it really should by introducing all these unnecessary and unneeded back-stories and plot-points for each of the people operating these machines and they're not enjoyable in the slightest when a series of giant monsters is threatening the planet. On top of that, the fact that the creatures and the robots, however impressively they're designed, are so obviously CGI that they become distracting compared to how often they're on-screen and given a lot of changes to really dwell in their obviousness. Otherwise, there's not much really wrong with this one. |

Can't expect much from DVDs now that people are all "Oh all of a sudden DVDs can't fit anything even though in 2003 some DVDs had 8+ hours of stuff per disc! So we have to put it all on BluRay only"
