Pacific Rim Uprising




In 2013 Guillermo Del Toro unleashed his love of kaijus in the form of Pacific Rim, after that everyone seemed to know kaijus. Growing up i loved those type of flicks, but to me, PR, seemed more like a Transformers flick, and that is exactly what the sequel is too. I didn't love either, but both were fun & enjoyable. The plot is sort of contrived, the Jagers/military subplot sort of defeats the purpose of why everyone tries to make custom versions out of scraps or while kaiju skeletons are still in the streets. I suppose it goes to show the government is always working on shit, but still, i'll let is slide. The CHarlie Day turn was seen a mile away but felt like Jim Carrey as the Riddler. The leads are all good, and have great chemistry, their fun gives us fun, all you can really ask for it, still way better than any Transformers flick.
