While Guillermo Del Toro‘s robots-vs-monsters epic, PACIFIC RIM, didn’t exactly demolish the box office, it didn’t exactly flop either and has built up a fanbase of massive proportions. It’s one of the few movies I saw more than once in the theater (in 3D as well) and was happy I did so. So, I’m sure some of you will be scornful that an honest trailer was even made for this one, but even as much as I love the film it’s hard to deny that it’s got some issues, which this Honest Trailer brings to light. Frankly, this is one of the “nicest” Honest Trailer’s I’ve seen, because even as stupid as PACIFIC RIM is it’s just as cool. It’s an easy movie to forgive by sheer entertainment value alone, but it’s okay to laugh and some of the silly shit that’s peppered throughout. For that, I think it’s earned this well-placed Honest Trailer.

Enjoy:
