I have to admit, I haven&#8217;t seen the original Pacific Rim movie from 2013, but I can at once say, that it is very possible to watch this movie without watching its predecessor first. But, is it worth watching it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"688\" height=\"306\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/fromabroad.org\/hbonow\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/25\/2018\/12\/Pacific-Rim.jpg?resize=688%2C306&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Pacific Rim Uprising on HBO Now\" class=\"wp-image-350\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/fromabroad.org\/hbonow\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/25\/2018\/12\/Pacific-Rim.jpg?w=1236&amp;ssl=1 1236w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/fromabroad.org\/hbonow\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/25\/2018\/12\/Pacific-Rim.jpg?resize=300%2C133&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/fromabroad.org\/hbonow\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/25\/2018\/12\/Pacific-Rim.jpg?resize=768%2C342&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/fromabroad.org\/hbonow\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/25\/2018\/12\/Pacific-Rim.jpg?resize=1024%2C456&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/fromabroad.org\/hbonow\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/25\/2018\/12\/Pacific-Rim.jpg?resize=665%2C296&amp;ssl=1 665w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 688px) 100vw, 688px\" \/><figcaption>Watch Pacific Rim: Uprising on HBO Now<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pacific Rim: Uprising on HBO Now<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The movie was added to HBO Now in December 2018 (based on my knowledge). It will most likely stay on HBO Now for a couple of months, but I cannot say for sure exactly for how long it will stay. If you want to watch it, go ahead and watch it right away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Want to know more about how you can <a href=\"https:\/\/fromabroad.org\/hbonow\">watch HBO Now outside the USA<\/a>? Click the link!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is Pacific Rim: Uprising worth watching?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I have watched a lot of action movies recently, and there are quite some similarities between Pacific Rim: Uprising and<a href=\"https:\/\/fromabroad.org\/hbonow\/rampage-is-now-on-hbo-now\/\"> Rampage<\/a>. Both movies contain some superspecial powered creatures, and there are some crazy action scenes taking place in the movie.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pacific Rim: Uprising takes place in a quite peaceful environment in which they have managed to expel the&nbsp;Kaiju, and the Jeagers is having an easy time keeping order in the streets. But, as always, there is someone causing trouble, and as a result, the Kaiju will once again threaten the earth and all of mankind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fighting against them we meet Jake Pentecost, the son of the hero from the original movie, Stacker Pentecost. He doesn&#8217;t care much as we meet him in the start of the movie, but as the threat level goes up, he is standing up to take part in the battle.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In general, Pacific Rim: Uprising has received lower ratings and worse critics online than the first movie. I can easily understand that, because this wasn&#8217;t much to rejoice about. The action scenes are nice, and it is fun watching the robots fight against one another, but the story in itself doesn&#8217;t grab a hold of you, and it is honestly, quite boring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you are a fan of this sort of movies, you might like it, but if you just want to watch a great action movie, I would much rather recommend Rampage!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you are a fan of this sort of movies, you might like it, but if you just want to watch a great action movie, I would much rather recommend Rampage!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Have you seen Pacific Rim: Uprising? Do you agree with me in my conclusion? I would love to hear your thoughts about the movie as well!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I recently watched Rampage on Netflix, and as I finished watching Rampage, I discovered that Pacific Rim: Uprising is one&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":350,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-348","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.9 -
