Finally saw it...
Well I enjoyed it as the action movie that it is (incredible FX above all in 3D, good rhythm, tense fights) but that's where it stops.
.

lol it's a movie about giant robots fighting monsters what else is it suppose to be besides an enjoyable action movie.

Did I say otherwise ?
It's just that there are action flicks that have quality writing and good acting, which lacked in that one. :yeshrug:

Looks like the international market may help give this a sequel

UPDATED: Thanks to the stellar opening, Guillermo del Toro's tentpole crosses the $200 million mark internationally and narrowly beats the $52.5 million opening of "The Smurfs 2."

Legendary Pictures' tentpole Pacific Rim soared to a $45.2 million debut in China, marking the biggest opening of all time for a Warner Bros. title and the sixth-biggest debut of all time for any Hollywood movie.

The strong showing at the Chinese box office pushed the film's international total to $200.4 million and worldwide cume to $293.4 million.

It's still not clear whether Guillermo del Toro's film will break even, considering it cost at least $200 million to make, not factoring in a major marketing spend. Domestically, it has earned a tepid $92.3 million.

Still, the film's No. 1 weekend finish at the international box office ($53 million from 58 markets) was good news for Legendary -- which put up the lion's share of the budget -- and WB. Pacific Rim narrowly beat the $52.5 million opening of Sony's The Smurfs 2, although that film is only playing in 42 markets.

In China, Pacific Rim easily came in No. 1. The giant robot-monster mashup did huge business in IMAX theaters, which ponied up $6 million from 109 screens. It is IMAX's second-best opening in China.
