College Service Announcements MOVIE REVIEW : P ART 2

PACIFIC RIM : U PRISING Director: Steven S. DeKnight Writer(s): Steven S. DeKnight, T.S. Nowlin Story & Screenplay: Emily Carmichael, and Kira Snyder By S MG Campus Press Writer and Movie Critic

our years before taking this year’s Oscars by storm with The Shape of Water , Hellboy, and F Pan’s Labyrinth, director Gullimero del Toro gave us Pacific Rim : a love letter to the mecha and kaiju genres, and a bigbudget oddity compared to 2013’s other Summer hits like Man of Steel , World War Z, and Despicable Me 2 . I, unfortunately, missed the film when it was still in theatres. At the time, I sank my teeth into animated family films and practically ignored the existence of most major liveaction blockbusters. Eventually I checked it out several years later, and boy would I love to knock some sense into my younger self. Pacific Rim was one of the rare niche blockbusters that overcame its problems with pure passion and heart. The story was simple to follow. The characters were fleshed out enough to care about them and to understand their actions and motivations. Their actors’ performances (most notably Idris Elba, Charlie Day, Burn Gorman and Rinko Kunichi) elevated their cheesy dialogue. Most importantly, the action was absolutely stellar mostly thanks to the memorable set pieces, the semidark “endoftheworld” tone, and beautiful CGI work on the Jaeger mechs and monstrous Kaijus that carried such a weighty presence. Pacific Rim: Uprising , the longawaited sequel helmed by Daredevil and Spartacus showrunner Steven S. DeKnight, doesn’t come close to having the same bite that the first did; nor does it stand well as a movie on its own. Heck, even the darker or epic moments feel undercut by lame, forced jokes half of the time. They want to have their cake and eat it too, but didn’t craft the script in a way that would allow both tones to flow naturally.
