Pacific Rim is a 2013 American anime-influenced science fiction and mecha monster film directed by Guillermo del Toro, written by del Toro and Travis Beacham, and starring Charlie Hunnam, Idris Elba, Kikuchi Rinko, Charlie Day, Robert Kazinsky, Max Martini, and Ron Perlman.
The film is set in the 2020s, when humanity is under attack by "Kaijus", colossal monsters which have emerged from the Pacific Ocean.
