The "first landfall" bridge scene and Gipsy Danger's fall were both in daylight, and looked fantastic. I think night time is just more dramatic. Cheaper, maybe, but giant monsters coming up from the deep, under your feet, in the DARK? Much scarier.
And did anyone else think the sword took away from the movie? That bothered me much more than the scientists.........

I found the sword was Over-Powered...just like the M16 in Call of Duty
But seriously, when I saw it come out I was questioning why they didn't use it whenever possible...
I'll see your poseable figure and raise you a few premium format figures

Saw it tonight, and it was awesome.
I could have sworn that little scientist guy was JJ Abrams, till I sat through the credits.
I guess the best way to sum up how I feel about it, is that it's a live action version of the GI JOE and Transformers movies when I was a kid. A little darker plotwise than what's normally shown to kids on the tv, but still not something that can't be shown to little kids who just want to see big monsters and robots fight.
It was pretty awesome, and I'll be picking up the blu ray
I heard it's already gone past the theatrical run of Pan's Labryinth for earnings.

I really appreciated the fact that Mako wasn't a damsel in distress. She was an equal with Raleigh once the began piloting Gypsy...:thumbsup

Regarding the chain sword, it was only used twice and under very specific situations. First, the bat Kaiju had Gipsy and was flying up into the stratosphere. They couldn't miss hitting it and the Kaiju while holding Gipsy would be braced so the impact from the sword would be pretty damaging. The other situation was the Kaiju swimming at Gipsy very quickly. Sheer inertia kept that Kaiju going as Gipsy cut through it. The Kaiju literally did the damage to itself by running into the blade. With what it took to get 5000 tons of Kaiju meat going, when it hit the sword it wasn't going to stop on a dime, it just tore itself to shreds.
Now honestly, I would question why they don't start out with two armed Plasma guns when they're at range. Don't let the heavily melee centric monster get close enough to touch you, fry it from a distance.

I loved the movie...but while we are on the subject, instead of putting up your defenses in various cities, why not just set up shop right there at the rift and blast em right when they come out.
