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.

Critics Consensus

Pacific Rim Uprising won't win any points for subtlety or originality, but it delivers enough of the rock 'em-sock 'em robots-vs.-kaiju thrills that fans of the original will be looking for.

Chicago Reader

This unnecessary sequel, lacking the original's assets, plays like a vapid Transformers knockoff.

I'm not sure even fans will find this industrial-strength head-banger entertaining. The best thing is that Pacific Rim: Uprising is under two hours though I have to warn you - it feels much longer.

Rated: 1.5/5

Pacific Rim: Uprising is the skim atop your cooling soup: an unnecessary goop spoiling your appetizing meal.

...it’s tough to embrace it as anything more than forgettable blockbuster fluff.

Next Best Picture

Don’t get me wrong, if you’re here mainly to watch robots faceoff against monsters, you’ll likely leave fairly satisfied. Pacific Rim Uprising disappointingly settles for simply being passable.

Rated: 3/10

Deep Focus Review

The whole thing has a forgettable quality that almost deletes itself from your memory in the minutes and hours after seeing it.

Sorry but I tried to like this. It had moments but it’s ruined by poor writing and poor cast. All graphics took like a video game trainers from 10 years ago. I’m utterly bored at something that tries to give so much action. It’s weird.

Not particularly original but I didn't expect it to be, so that's fine. Pretty unlikable main character, but the special effects and fight scenes sort of make up for it.

Probably the most forgettable giant robot movies that i've ever seen. Theres one day i watched this movie on DVD , the movie ends , and completetly forgetting everything about the movie , i can't even show you one thing about the movie. I thought they have enough making the first movie that was a masterpiece , and that's a no no , THEY MADE A SEQUEL. But i could tell theres nothing interesting about this movie. 7/10 , But it's still better watching Dune : Part two while they had the same score.

How did a movie this horrible make it through production? And why are they still putting John Boyega in movies?
