And so 130 minutes was spent. It was spent by myself viewing the movie, by the editing crew making the movie that long, and then multiples of hours were spent conjuring this anti-masterpiece. What a creation. The nomenclature "Kaiju" "Jaeger" "Neural"... something and of course "The Drift" will linger on in all viewers hearts and minds. So psychological, so penetrating. So scary. Its hard to fathom the day when aliens land in the Pacific Ocean and begin conquering the coastal territories adjacent. Now viewers know what this feels like and its not pretty. However, its somewhat harder to fathom that when humans create defensive robotic machines called "Jaegers" to fight the aliens , they failed to make them more automated. These Jaegers (btw, Jaegermeister must have sponsored this movie, how else would they ever come up with this name?) must operate by a highly complicated system. Two people that share common hopes and dreams must unite via some kind of really high tech futuristic brain sharing mechanism to collaborate on moving an enormous robotic nuclear powered machine around. Another quick logistical point; if these Jaeger robots are so hard to maneuver why F-around against the aliens in the middle of the sea all the time, keep them on ground. Altogether there was lively, yet fairly difficult to comprehend or follow action scenes, a colourful sketchy merchant of alien parts based in a shadowy part of Hong Kong and one of the guys from Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia playing a role that is far above his IQ on the sitcom.
