    Here’s a bold one: “Atlantic Rim”.

    Yes. It is just a low budget cash grab meant to fool grandparents into buying little Johnny the wrong film by accident. (When little Johnny asked for a copy of “Pacific Rim”.)

    But somehow it actually has a decent script, and passable acting.

    The effects are bonkers cheap, though.

    Okay, I’m really stretching it with this one.

    But I tried to hate-watch it, and couldn’t actually hate it.

      Idc about nuthin, and will defend the first Pacific rim any time! This is also coming from someone who legit got a lump in my throat watching the first Kong v. Godzilla trailer from like six or seven years ago!
