The movie "Pacific Rim." Shit was corny as hell
The only thing wrong with Pacific Rim is that it wasn't a four hour long cut of big ass robots clowning big ass monsters in every biome on Earth. I want to watch Gipsy Danger cut a Kaiju in half with the People's Elbow from the top of a mountain. Lemme see Striker Eureka smash a Kaiju into a railway so an incoming Shinkansen blows through its skull like a kinetic rod. Shit, one of them wielded a ship like a baseball bat, let me see a train used as a whip or a garotte. Midair Kurosawa blade jump that ends with a Kaiju landing intact and then slowly sliding apart in two pieces while the Jaeger slowly gets up.
Yes but unironically, this is my main gripe with big robots especially and sci-fi action movies in general. I came here to watch the giant robots or spaceships beating the shit out of eachother, i don't need vapid 10 minute romance or 30 minutes of shallow hamfisted psychological drama included. If i wanted that, there's dedicated genres with like million movies out there already.
