ClassyWas Excellent, smart action film.

Inadvands Boring, over-political, tech fuzed mess

Stoutor It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

Neive Bellamy Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

Stevieboy666 Never a good sign when the opening credits start with "The Asylum Presents..." Three crack soldiers are deployed to fight giant sea monsters from attacking the USA using massive manned Transformer type robots. Terrible, wooden acting on display here, cheap CGI effects & incredibly dumb plot, plus there's not actually a great deal of monster action, so it's pretty boring too. It's a pity this wasn't made in Japan as they specialize in this sort of thing. Best avoided, a total waste of time.

Azhar Mohammad First off it's an extremely cheap very very low budget rip-off of the original movie. The robots are so pathetic and thin they look as if carved from cheap aluminum; not heavy metal like Pacific rim. The actors are very handsome and beautiful and all but they are amateur at best. Their acting really sucks. The dialogues suck. No professionalism. If CinemaSins (YouTube Channel) was to review this pathetic movie, his movie meter would overload and explode. It's the most pathetic, shitty and rotten movie I have ever seen. Guys and girls and fellow human beings do yourselves a favor and don't watch it. I repeat DO NOT watch it.

Leofwine_draca Atlantic RIM delivers exactly what you'd expect from a PACIFIC RIM rip-off knocked out by notorious production studio The Asylum. It's a film packed to the brim with nonsense, featuring some pretty bad CGI monsters and robots and robotic dialogue to match.I like del Toro's PACIFIC RIM; it's a rip-roaring homage to the kaiju flicks of old. This is nothing like; instead it's a bland, soulless production that concentrates too much on simply trying to join the dots than to deliver a decent piece of stand-alone entertainment. The performances are uniformly poor, ranging from the non-starters (like Treach, who was also in the horrendous THE ART OF WAR III) to the weary veterans (Graham Greene, a long way from DIE HARD WITH A VENGEANCE).The CGI shots are as cheap and amateurish as you'd expect, but at least when the fights start Atlantic RIM does keep you watching - if only a little. But it's in the various supposedly dramatic dialogue scenes where this really falls apart, slowing down to a fatal crawl from which it never recovers.

buttyfrench SPOILERS!!!! OK, I saw all of the bad reviews and said, "Hey, this must be a terrible movie without much of anything that I would like because so many other people hated it!". But, then I said, "Hey, why not watch it anyway because I know that I won't live forever and there is a chance it could be good and I will die and NOT know it was really good.". So, I decided to watch it and found out that it was well acted and had a great plot with really, really, dootedly CGI effects. The bots looked like they could walk right off your screen and into your bed with your girlfriend. Several of the actors were sweaty all of the time, I noticed, BTW! We were all like shouting that they needed to wipe off the sweat or get sudsy in an all out soapy shower scene with hot babes and milfs. It's all good anyway with out the shower scene.
