Pacific
From Rim to Ramps,,
Before
the rampage of Animagus begins, we find ourselves on
the rims of our seats in this bigger than life 3D watchable movie: Pacific Rim.
The transformations and transfigurations are the underlying
structure in this film.
From Infra-red to blue alien tones, the undertone is about
two organic but non-organic sets of creatures battling it out on the movie set.
The hybrid monsters are a mishmash of dinosaur dragons and transformers. But the real monsters are guess who?!
Not many car scenes though except for the bridge fight scene.
Otherwise the scenes are water set and fire toned but mainly
icy white of snow.
The snow scene is sword filled with fights but not with sword
fish -unfortunately for us..
It’s a slippery slope from machinery to organics and back to
technology, in the sense that the monster hybrids are neither happy nor
satisfied being manipulated by the bad guys.
Power struggle takes a back seat to the special boom effects
of top to toe edited camera work.
Story line seems less prominent here and more so next view
vue in Rampage.
Will the setting be more organic at the next review? I certainly
do hope so, but the Rim is a good watch for sure!
