how much it moved you
Two separate readings, not parts of the score β the score says how much of it held you, these say what kind of watch it was.
Nobody has rated this on FlickFeel yet. This is public discussion of this title, read into a curve. It is not a rating and it never becomes one.
Read from 110 comments (77 from Reddit, 30 from Metacritic, 3 from TMDB reviews) β 22 of them described how it moves.
π flatline β One note, start to finish. Pulled both ways throughout β never simply one thing. Very little of it ever resolves. Marked above the line: 1 that landed as a blow.

βThen there's the scene where Gypsy goes to the island and fights Obsidian a second time and it fucking rips out it's power core on some fuckin Temple of Doom Khali Ma shit and my jingles tingled and I thought okay this might be pretty dope.β

βThen, I dunno, the rest of the action failed to live up to that moment. The holy shit moments were few and far between and the last fight felt really rushed.β

βThe second movie. . . opened with a pool party and Oreos. That's just a taste of how down a notch this movie was to me.β

Published reviews, not felt experience β a different question from the one above, and never mixed into the FlickFeel score.
βIt may not be nuanced, but it taps into something mythical β ferocious monsters rising from nowhere to be battled by 21st century swordfighters. And itβs exhilarating.β

βFor viewers who are still impressed by CGI destruction and thrilled by the sight of realistic mechas in action, Uprising is yet another escalation in scale, staged creatively and with apparent love for the old-school kaiju genre.β

βThe movie balances amiable humor and standard believe-in-yourself bromides with better than average action sequences.β
Glenn Kenny, The New York Times Β· 80
βUprisingβs script isnβt great at jokes or nuance or originality, but itβs pretty good at shuttling us from one set piece to the next. And when those set pieces are good β as is the case with an early Jaeger fight in Siberia, or the gee-whiz silliness of the climactic battle in Tokyo β itβs easy enough to overlook.β

βPacific Rim Uprising is a loyal, if unremarkable, successor to the giddy original.β

βA long majority of Uprising is spent outside the giant mechs, doting over a slew of thin, bland, mostly-new focal figures instead. It seems frightened to cut loose, withholding the payout for fear it can't measure up.β

βOnce the monster threat finally rears its head and the city block-sized laser swords start flying, Uprising makes for a pale impersonation.β

βThis 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. Come one, fighting giant monster with big clumsy robots that requires two people in some strange mind melt to maneuver is just ridiculous. Just send in a couple of fighter jets with some suitable devices that go boom and be done with it. But then, the purpose of these movies are to show off giant robot special effecβ
