I like Transfomers but Pacific fim is so much better. A bunch of people said that it's copying of the Transformers! Pacific RIm is nothing like the Transformers at all!!!

That's just ignorance talking. Pacific Rim pays homage to many movies, anime and manga... and any fan can tell you at least 5 of them which had an influence - none of them is Transformers.

Exactly! At first when I watched the trailer for Pacific Rim, my first thought was "It looks like Transformers!". Even when I never watched any of the Transformers films at the time. Now that I've watched both, there is not a single similarity, genre not included. Reading the tweets and posts online about how PR is a "rip off" is really frustrating!

Comparisons of Pacific Rim to Transformers are bound to take place because both are essentially humanoid mecha movies. The difference lies in execution, thoughtfulness, artistic appeal and sheer enthusiasm with which both the movies were made. Despite having a lower budget than Transformers 2 and 3 , Pacific Rim's special effects are much better as the CGI robots look and feel completely real. If a comparison is done on aspects other than special effects like story, characters and overall appeal of the two movies, then rest assured Pacific Rim outperforms Transformers by many parsecs ;-) http://movie-reviews-and-tangents.blogspot.in/2013/08/movie-review-pacific-rim.html
