Bad acting, and the piss poor cg in the opening scene aside, this movie is really entertaining. I like the idea that the Jaeger is too much for one person to handle. It really feels like a problem we, as normal people, wouldn't imagine. But one of the reasons they use to explain to me why the second one is bad in comparison to the first one is that they supposedly filmed this one from a civilian perspective. From the ground, a helicopter, the 45th floor of a skyscraper. But rewatching it, that's not the case. Most of the shots are cinematic. Doesn't make this a bad movie, but it does invalidate the argument this movie is better than the second.

There are so many more reasons 'uprising' sucks compared to this.
