Pacific Rim: Uprising
Jake Pentecost is a once-promising Jaeger pilot whose legendary father gave his life to secure humanity's victory against the monstrous Kaiju. Jake has since abandoned his training only to become caught up in a criminal underworld. But when an even more unstoppable threat is unleashed to tear through cities and bring the world to its knees, Jake is given one last chance by his estranged sister, Mako Mori, to live up to his father's legacy.

Pacific Rim: Uprising is a film that's fully aware of its limitations but one that's happy to work within the confines of them and even utilise them to its strengths. As a result, it's a much more enjoyable ride than anyone might dared to have hoped.March 28, 2018
This is a typical summer-type movie, a popcorn movie. There is plenty of action and eye candy. It is pure escapism. As such, it works well enough.March 22, 2018
Putting DeKnight at the helm hasn't degraded the enterprise; if anything, it has put the enterprise, glorified demolition derby that it is, into proper perspective.March 27, 2018
Under the direction of Steven S. DeKnight, the excitement of the scant battle scenes in the first half is quickly vaporized by extended sequences of inefficiency: in the laboratory, in the training room, in the testing facilities.March 29, 2018
Awfully boring all in all, and that's a terrible problem for such an empty-headed popcorn movie.March 28, 2018
Kaijus and Jaegers might be back fighting but that didn't mean I felt anything sitting in the theatre watching them wrestle for supremacy.March 23, 2018
Like leftovers in the fridge or reuniting with a lost love, "Pacific Rim: Uprising" is proof things are never as good the second time around.March 29, 2018
There is a lot missing from this drab, lethargic sequel to the 2013, rock-'em-sock-'em robots-versus-monsters hit Pacific Rim.March 22, 2018
It's 10 years later and another rock 'em sock 'em battle between the Jaegers and the Kaiju is in the offing.March 22, 2018
It knows its mission parameters, and it ticks them off with alacrity.March 24, 2018
Like most unintended second installments, this one is superfluous - a remix of moments, scenes, and images from its predecessor infused with the need to make everything bigger and louder.March 22, 2018
This is Transformers-level inanity. It will not make you feel like a 10-year-old, but it will make you feel 10 years older by the time you leave the theater.
