What the audience says
Pacific Rim holds up as a perfectly decent English film, if not a remarkable one. It carries a 7.0/10 on TMDB across 13,852 ratings — comfortably clear of the pack.
Should you spend 2h 11m on it?
2h 11m of English action with a science fiction streak, not one for younger kids. That score holds across 13,852 ratings, so it's about as safe as this week's list gets.

Using massive piloted robots to combat the alien threat, Earth's survivors take the fight to the invading alien force lurking in the depths of the Pacific Ocean.
