The Binge Watcher Review: Atlantic Rim (2013)

Atlantic Rim (2013)

Staring: David Chokachi, Graham Greene, Anthony ‘Treach’ Criss, Jackie Moore

Synopsis:

When giant Monsters crawl out of the Atlantic Ocean and attack the Eastern Seaboard the US Government is forced to trust a trio of mischievous soldiers, specialized in piloting gigantic robots, to defend America.

The Good:

Due to the low budget film you know what your getting. A Cheesy sci-fi action movie with questionable CGI. The most recognizable actors from the film are David Chokachi (Baywatch) and Graham Greene (Die Hard with a Vengeance), at the very least it gives the film the chance to have some actors to sell the story. The script isn’t horrible which allows the film to move with out the backyard film effect.

The Bad:

Well like most B Movies, the CGI is definitely questionable. I feel like I am watching a Playstation One Video game at best, and while the script is cheesy at best there is a reason this was a straight to video movie. 

Final Thoughts:

Atlantic Rim is from the same production company that brings you some of the more popular B Movies such as Sharknado and the Three Headed Shark Attack. So it brings some credibility as far as B Movies go. Atlantic Rim definitely works as “Its so Bad Its good” type of film. Thanks to Hulu you can watch this movie any time you like. My suggestion start a weekly Bad Movie night with some friends and make sure you have some beer. Just don’t waste the good stuff on this film, make it a Pabst Blue Ribbon.

I give Atlantic Rim One Thumbs up, cause its just that bad its funny. Check out the film and let us know your thoughts below.
