Wow, this is so bad... 1/10




BEWARE, not of "spoilers", NOTHING could "spoil" this rancid example of plagerisim...

A couple B/C listers and unknown film school drop outs, mixed in with obvious crack addicts going through withdrawals, bring you "Atlantic" Rim... It's like the intended audience are folks who had heard of "Pacific" Rim. The latter a Summer Blockbuster that this waste tries to copy.
Graham Greene, (who plays the deadpan crusty old timer in the almost equally low rent Defiance), should be ashamed of being seen in this blatant rip-off. I don't fault the other players, the rent at the Hollywood flea-bag motels isn't free and going home to the squalor they came from must be a frightening thought. But there is no excuse for the production team that put this trash together.
It is not a parody, (that might excuse this mess), it is a "movie malware" that will infect your mind and probably put you off seeing "Pacific" Rim because just the memory of the few minutes you watch of the crap before you throw your screen through the nearest window, will make you wretch and run for the nearest vomitorium...
Now, ask me what I really think of this disgusting manifestation of what happens when someone leaks the story idea of a "real" movie, to unscrupulous "movie malware" producers. Prepare yourself, you'll be angry that this shameful piece of garbage was puked up from the dump...

What he said.. it's just painful to watch.

I give it a -10........
I hardly could watch only 15 mins of it......damn

There's almost nothing positive that could be said about this movie. I guess the special effects aren't too bad. Nothing else is any good. The acting is atrocious, and the story makes no sense. I'll put it this way: any Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers tv episode is superior to this in every way except monster quality.

WORST FILM AND ACTING I HAVE EVER SEEN!!! IF THIS AVERAGES MORE THAN 1 STAR AS A RATING...I WILL LOSE FAITH IN MANKIND!!!!

reply

Whole crew, cast, production people, everyone associated with this POS, get cancer and die!

Brad Pitt, you're on my s***list.

I'm curious, did Brad Pitt have something to do with this pathetic production? I really hope not! I see him as having enough money to feed his family without having to stoop so low, but who knows, some "stars" have such horrible income tax issues that they are living on the edge of bankruptcy.

That's just his signature, though I do wonder what Brad Pitt did to get onto his list.

This is my signature. There are many others like it but this one is mine

This movie gives a whole new meaning to the "Disaster" film genre.

WORST FILM AND ACTING EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER. PERIOD.
LESS THAN 0 STAR RATING. Unimaginably bad. Written by who must be an ignoramous with a rich relative in Hollywood. It would be actually laughable if you were totally blitzed on anything fun and could keep a sense of humor...this is like a stoned college kids' dream film at an all night Plan 9 From Outerspace film festival. Geez...I can't believe money was spent on this...I sure hope the actors (if you can call them that) got paid---except Graham Greene---he should be put into a public stockade and have tomatoes thrown at him. Shame.

A one from me as well.

Am watching this movie right now, and all I have to say is OMG! IT'S FANTASTIC! I don't know how anybody could confuse this neat film to "Pacific Rim." The stories are TOTALLY different, the acting and special effects here far exceeds Pacific Rim, and most of all, it takes place in the ATLANTIC Ocean. That's the OPPOSITE of the Pacific Ocean!

I cannot figure out why you are all complaining. This movie obviously ranks up there with the very best of work turned out by Kubrick, Spielberg, Hitchcock or other spectacular directors.
