\"\"Wow, there’s a lot of films opening this weekend. Let’s get started.<\/p>\n

\"\"1. Pacific Rim: Uprising (Universal, 3,708 Theaters, 111 Minutes, Rated PG-13 for sequences of sci-fi violence and action, and some language, Rotten Tomatoes Tomatometer at press time: 45% Fresh<\/a> [106 Reviews]): <\/strong>I really liked\u00a0Pacific Rim<\/strong>. It was a goofy “giant robots versus giant monsters” film that was campy enough to have a character named Stacker Pentecost yet well made enough that it delivered fun action and emotion.<\/p>\n

However, that film had Guillermo del Toro on board as writer and director (he’s only a producer for this one), and Idris Elba as Pentecost who only appears in this one, presumably, in pictures. Both will be missed.<\/p>\n

This time around, the Kaiju are back and it’s looks like its an inside job. The only person who can get to the bottom of it is Pentecost’s son, Nate (John Boyega).<\/p>\n
