Sucker Punch

Sadly, vastly underused. Total screentime was like 10-15 minutes, but they were hilarious every second of those. Think HBC in Lone Ranger.Oh, and I know credits say "Alexis" (nice Russian name lol), but I'm pretty sure Russian dub had it as "Sasha and Alexei", with "Sasha" being male of the two

I don't think it will be a problem BO-wise. Russian audience is mostly insensitive/used to this sort of stuff in Hollywood movies

The action was good. Central setpiece alone is certainly worth the price of admission. Expertly staged and well shot. Long and involved. Maybe a little too many closeups, but not so much as to be distracting. After that one, final battle was a little disappointing, being underwater scene, and giving more time to cockpit shots.And it's not that "most" action happens at night: ALL setpieces are dark, ALL kaiju shots except two or three are at night, and Jaeger docks are not exactly basking in the sun, either Seen it in in 2D and darkness was not a problem for the most part, except probably that final showdown. Could see 3D sucking because of that, though.Compared to MoS, PR setpieces are distinctly contained and delineated, whereas MoS at some point becomes this neverending FX romp-and-stomp and those millions spent on CG pouring off the screen.What bugged me most about action in MoS were those unnecessary zoom-ins and camera movements. I can understand they were trying to convey some immediacy etc., but I found that distracting and meddling with viewer immersion. Why would Snyder want to work with Mokri instead of Fong is beyond me, because his direction certainly did not gel well with this sort of photography. PR loves its viewer in this regard, it lets you both enjoy the sight and follow the action.I liked both movies, but action-wise, I'd have to admit I liked PR better. Probably, MoS has been wearing off on me :)Anyway, you'll have to see for yourself

Russians in Pacific Rim really bring back memories of Baymaggedon.. Two bulky peroxided thugs in fur coats riding what most resembles a tin can.Oh, and Alexei is actually a male name

Quite a bit more, actually: Texas chainsaw, Hansel and gretel (half the movie), Jack, Oz, TGG, This is Us, Battle of the Year, Hobbit, Walking with dinosaurs, and 47 Ronin, although less and less sure this one gets released in 2013. Also, Gravity is converted, not shot in 3d.
