Pretty classical question, curious to see what you all think.

For me, it’s Pacific Rim. It is mostly about giant robots fighting huge monsters, but the the psychological treatment of the characters is more refined than someone would expect for this kind of movies.

And the intro is very poignant scene, again, not something you would expect in this kind of movies.

    Macross Plus (was originally a mini series). It reflects a lot about our current times and the possible future to come. Has some amazing dog-fights, plot twists and some of the best music around.

    SSS tier.

    Runner up: Patlabor 1. A masterpiece in many ways.

    Original Tron. It was the matrix before the Matrix (watch one before the other for extra fun). Again,really reflects the current times and possible future to come.
