117020, Incredibly cheesy. (spoilers)

But enjoyable enough.

Loved the visual design. The aesthetic went perfect with the world. For all the Transformers comparisons, I saw more Ridley Scott on screen than anything.

The dialogue made me cringe. I don't have the energy for ironic enjoyment anymore. To be honest, I never had the energy. Shit was not a pleasure to listen to.

(the spoiler part)

My favorite part of the movie was the memory sequence with Baby Mako being hunted by the kaiju. That felt like Pan's Labyrinth del Toro on a huge scale and I loved it. Would have loved to see a two hour movie about a little girl surviving in a kaiju ravaged city waiting to be rescued by jaegers, instead of the Independence Day arc we got instead.
