Bewertung von gaboonviper-605-441518
You could try and rate this movie by realism, acting prowess of the cast, and the excellence of the story. But that's like trying to rate the Shawshank Redemption by the amount of comedy, and its suitableness for kids.
This is a mega-monster parody.
It's the kind of movie you watch with your friends while laughing and generally having a good time. And its excellent at that. The movie is chock full of action sequences, special effects and interesting twists that keep your attention. At the same time, it doesn't make the mistake of taking itself too seriously with the drama and art.
The acting is not great, but good enough to prevent you from gouging your eyes out. The characters are likable clichés from all of your favourite movies. And the story makes sense almost half of the time.
You don't HAVE to see this movie. But if you're looking for something fun to watch that's not too heavy; this is as good a choice as any.

Pacific rim has everything a blockbuster needs: Great graphics, great action, an interesting storyline, simple characters, cheesy lines, and a decent bit of humor.
The graphics are top of the line. And unlike some movies *cough* Transformers 2 *cough*, the action scenes are actually immersing and thrilling, rather than confusing. They are also regularly interspersed with some storyline, so they don't get too drawn out.
The story is your basic alien invasion science fiction with some small differences. I'm not going to give away anything more, though to be honest there isn't all that much I could tell you that you would really regret hearing. The movie isn't about story, even if it's interesting enough that it could have been.
There will be some plot devices that you will see coming from miles away. But the movie also occasionally and refreshingly differentiates from the norm. For example: not everyone you expect will get eaten by the monsters.
As for the acting, this seems to be criticized mostly. And although the characters are shallow, I can't say that the acting was so bad that I actually noticed. In fact I kinda thought the little Asian girl did an exceptional job, and I rarely notice good acting. I also rarely notice bad acting, so maybe I'm not the best compass in this area.
Humor is also important for a blockbuster. Since the story is about an apocalyptic event, the amount of humor is sparse, but it's placed in the right moments where you can use a bit of laugh. Without it the whole thing would just be a bit too depressing.
Pacific Rim not a masterpiece by any means, which seems to be why some critics give it terrible ratings. But like all movies, you should watch it in the spirit it was intended, in this case: a mindless thrill. This is where it succeeds well, and even above expectations. I'd put it on par with the classic 'Independence Day'. With a bit of luck this movie will reach that same status.

The Defiance TV show is certainly deserving of some criticism.
For starters, the CGI isn't all it could be. Oh there are some pretty space ships, and explosions. But they look like they come from a well-made cartoon movie, not a live action show. And some shots, particularly the moving flora shots are just plain ugly. It's as if they were concept scenes they forgot to take out.
Then there is the cliché story lines, as other reviewers mention: Romeo and Juliets, Alien apocalypses, Rogue sheriffs. Then again, if you hate clichés, maybe you should refrain from watching TV at all.
But I'm not here to make excuses. The series deserves recognition for many other aspects.
The characters, though they seem one-dimensional at first glance, are actually well fleshed out. There are no plain evil bad guys, nor are there any over-the-top gooey good guys. The characters are more human, and much deeper than in many other shows.
The acting is a bit of a mixed bag, but the most important characters are well-represented. Though I'll admit that I'm probably not the best judge in this area.
The best part of this show is however the story. Yes, I mentioned its clichés, but the clichés aren't necessarily bad, they have just been done before. The important part is how well they are executed. And in this case they are indeed well, and even realistically, executed.
If you think the good guys will never kill criminals if they have a chance to spare their lives, think again. If you think bad guys don't have any sense of morality, you're dead wrong.
Many shows thrive on drawn out angst, caused by characters acting more stupid than is necessary. I hope I'm not in the minority when I say that I highly prefer shows that don't join in that sort of nonsense, shows such as: Defiance.
One last word of advice. If Defiance doesn't completely haul you in right from the start, don't worry, it takes a few episodes to warm up to it. I kind of liked it at the start, but only just enough to keep watching. And now I prefer it to most shows I'm following.
