Pacfic Rim - A- for what it is. (spoilers)

Posted by Mel Profit (aka mel profit) Jul 15 '13, 07:18

it really is a great movie for it's type. Just don't think about it too hard. My biggest gripe...interdimensional invaders haven't figured out a better way to take over a planet in *65 MILLION* years other than sending over a couple of monsters? Also, about them doing it with Dinosaurs...didn't they win back then? Why wasn't it their planet back then? Again - don't think too hard.

Also, I was subjected to "That's My Boy". Sandler should be ashamed of himself. Yet again he's trying to write material as though he's in his 20s. It was one of the dumbest, unfunny things I've seen in awhile.

Oddly, we then caught the last 45mins of "Ted" which was a good example of how to do that material.

Ted is excellent. You have to remember Sandler tried serious/funny - Spanglish, and fell on his face. - Epiphany Jul 15, 07:22 7

- That's my Boy is brutally unfunny. I agree - he needs to go plant grapes in France or something. -- nm - Mel Profit Jul 15, 07:25
- i loved Punch Drunk Love. -- nm - Andie Jul 15, 07:24 2
  - maybe I should have said " commercially" but truthfully I don't know what those movies made in comparison - Epiphany Jul 15, 07:29
  - me too. -- nm - Diva Jul 15, 07:25
