Pacific Rim

This was a very fun movie.  I have always loved the old Godzilla movies and the idea of Kajou.  I think this movie caught some of the weirdness from the originals.  I always enjoyed baby Godzilla and they hinted at this idea, and they also had very interesting characters.  One part that was interesting was the little Japanese girl that cried, Mana Ashida.  We watch Japanese dramas and that girl always cries in the show that she is in, so when we saw the trailer and saw that she was in the movie, we figured there would be weakness water coming out of her eyes, and sure enough there was.  It made me think of all the times I cried as a child and wished that I could've made money from those tears.  Charlie Day and Charlie Hunnam were good in this movie, Day's character was very interesting and sufficiently strange.
