[truxillogical]

It's not a "dumb action film" so much as it is a simple action film. It's exactly what it says on the tin.

It's also uncynical and devoid of gritty manpain, which these days, in an action movie, is pretty freaking original.

It also creates characters who look and act like they have lives beyond what we see on screen, creating a certain depth to the world they inhabit. They fill the archetypes often, yes, but not in a lazy way.

It also features an Action Male Lead (who isn't really the protagonist--he's the mentor) who's defining characteristic are his empathy and his calm, respectful demeanor. Which again, kind of rare.

The Mary Sue has a pretty good article on what makes it unique. And over here is another good post about the movie's fairly surprising treatment of it's "geeks."

The story? Yeah, it's monsters smashing robots. The story isn't original. The execution is.
