Crank 2: High Voltage
I want to hate this film, but I just can't.
It's deliciously, deliriously, over the top, utterly stupid madness that had me laughing my arse off through 90% of it
The climax is a bit crap, but the rest of it gets a massive thumbs up from me.
If you're the type of person that can't deal with silly films and has to go all 'Mark Kermode', then this isn't for you
Pacific Rim
I approached this with the idea that I could just deal with whatever crapness there was because it featured giant robots fighting giant monsters.
I'm afraid I couldn't deal with it, unfortunately. It was crap.
As others have said, why couldn't they use their swords and stuff in the first place?
Why are jet pilots stupid enough to use machine guns and then fly straight into the monsters rather than dropping some laser guided bunker busting goodness from the heavens?
Why do robots need to punch them and then use a big gun or something?
Why does that Christian Slater looking scientist need to shout every one of his annoying lines?
Why couldn't they get some actual Australians?
There's more, but I CBA
