Pacific Rim: Uprising

Pacific Rim: Uprising is the sequel to the original Pacific Rim and now directed by Steven S. Deknight

Plot
It is 2035, ten years after the Battle of the Breach, in which the interdimensional portal created by the Precursors (through which they sent marauding Kaiju) was closed. Former Jaeger pilot Jake Pentecost—son of Battle of the Breach hero Stacker Pentecost—makes a living by stealing and selling Jaeger parts on the black market in the Los Angeles area. After he tracks part of a disabled Jaeger's power core to the secret workshop of fifteen-year-old Jaeger enthusiast Amara Namani, both are arrested by the Pan-Pacific Defense Corps (PPDC) following an altercation between Amara's originally made small, single-pilot Jaeger Scrapper and the Police Jaeger November Ajax. A holographic transmission of Jake's adoptive sister and PPDC Secretary General Mako Mori persuades him to return to PPDC as an instructor, with Amara as his recruit.

Why It Sucks

 * 1) As mentioned on the first film page on this wiki, The Kaijus are still creepy for GarfieldFan1997.
 * 2) It brings back the memory scene but on a new setting. Which is now in a carnival and it gets attacked by a giant kaiju.
 * 3) To GarfieldFan1997, It isn't explained why the original protagonists didn't reprise their role.
 * 4) The characters are sometimes so lifeless and bland. Even though some of the characters in the first film were bland, they actually had arcs and growth. Nobody grows or learns anything in Uprising, Someone tried to find something but there was nothing there, no substance. Sometimes, Boyega was so bad.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) Rinko Kikuchi reprises her role as Mako Mori.
 * 2) The visual effects are sometimes cool.
 * 3) It's at least an approval of the first ever movie.
 * 4) While John Boyega was a terrible choice to some people, He at least did a good job.
 * 5) The new memory scene doesn't have terrifying crying.
