fun and our 'friend' saved the day despite looking beaten at first.

I did not like the Pacific Rim ending, after getting their butts whipped the entire film, suddenly, at the end, the robots beat the monsters with no explanation. The little girl scene in PR was well done and I have no problem with it in general but found the fight scenes a bit more ordinary when Godzilla had a more 'arcade' feel to it, especially the greater sense of scale that worked for me.

ymmv

I disagree, Pacific Rim was predictable and boring Godzilla took advantage of their huge size - PhilJ 17:39:30 05/19/14 (5)
