Reductive or not, there's a lot to be said for eye-candy, and luckily for Steven S. DeKnight he has recruited John Boyega and Scott Eastwood into this CGI-fest that picks up from the, dare I say, far superior enterprise from 2013. It's "Lambert" (Eastwood) who has to knock his new squadron into shape as they prepare to fight an even more deadly army of "Transformers" - nope, sorry, "Kaiju" - as th
The only thing that went wrong with this movie was Charlie Day turned out to be the surprise villain! But....the none-stop action was very awesome.
Boyega makes for a slightly more engaging lead than Charlie Hunnam did in the original, (co-pilot Eastwood is merely **as** dull as Charlie Hunnam) but _Uprising_ has virtually the exact same ups and down as the first _Pacific Rim_. If you dig that movie, you'll probably dig this. If you hated it, you'll probably hate this. Me? I'm on the lower end of mixed, for both. _Final rating:★★½ - Had a
This movie is, to me, a quite nice special effects extravaganza. In some ways I actually liked this movie more than the first one. Sure, the underlying story is totally ludicrous.

Just send in a couple of fighter jets with some suitable devices that go boom
Transformers with some thought actually put into it! Plus, the always scrumptious Scott Eastwood always welcome. Yowza!
