Hi there bloggies, I’ve been seeing some post warning me of an A – Z Challenge and I was curious. I’ve seen this around before but have never participated, for some mad reason I thought I would give it a go.
So here I am.
My theme is the A-Z of Scifi moves, I’ve not given this a great deal of thought and I know of a number but I won’t lie there’s some I will struggle with. I hope you enjoy them!
P is for Pacific Rim
When a huge monstrous lizard thing called a Kaiju appears and starts tearing up the Earth it takes all of mankind’s efforts to kill the creature. Thinking the threat is done the world rests, until another appears, then another. Struggling to deal with the threat the world unites and creates the Jaegers, massive robots controlled by two human minds in unison.
A Jaeger pilot who disappeared after losing his twin brother co-pilot is called back for an unauthorized last stand as the Kaiju keep coming and the time between their appearance reduces a way needs to be found to stop them coming back – for good!
This film was not received well by audiences (except in China) unfairly as I thought this film was pretty good. It had a great concept and there was loads of action in it. The Jaeger action is pretty impressive but does get a little unrealistic at times, like falling from thousands of feet to the ground and surviving. But Definitely worth watching.
With P done that means Q is next…
