Stupid movies are so much more entertaining when you take kids to them.

The teenager instantly falls in love with John Boyega's actual accent while the first-grader shadow-boxes kaiju in the aisle.

This NPR review sums it up:

(THE FILM CRITIC steps to the podium.)

CRITIC: Good evening. Thank you all for coming. I'll read a brief statement, and then I'll be happy to take your questions.

(He removes a piece of paper from his jacket pocket, unfolds it, and begins to read.)

"Pacific Rim Uprising is a movie in which giant robots fight giant monsters. It is the sequel to 2013's Pacific Rim, a movie in which giant robots fight giant monsters. Pacific Rim Uprising is slightly different than Pacific Rim, in that in Pacific Rim Uprising, the giant robots first fight other giant robots and then they fight giant monsters. Thank you."

(He folds the paper before him, and sticks it back in his jacket pocket.)

I'll take your questions now. Yes, in the front?

REPORTER #1: Well, that sounds simply ghastly.

CRITIC: (Frowns) It ... does? Really?

REPORTER #1: Yes, just more awful Hollywood CGI schlock. Pure dreck.

CRITIC: ... I'm sorry, who are you with?

REPORTER #1: Mis-en-Scene, the Quarterly Journal for Performatively Pained Cineastes.

CRITIC: Ah. I see. And do you have a question, or ...?

REPORTER #1: No, I just wish to express my pained disgust.

CRITIC: Okay, well: Noted. Next ques-

REPORTER #1: I saw the trailer, and I said to my wife Simone, "Uch, there's no way in Hades I'm sitting through that, imagine ... "

CRITIC: (Hades?)

REPORTER #1: ... and then we clucked our tongues, the way we do, and sat there a while basking in our keenly developed aesthetic sense. Then we got to wondering who in the world would ever actually see it.

CRITIC: I mean ... you shouldn't.

REPORTER #1: So you agree. (Cluck.)

CRITIC: Do I agree that you shouldn't see it? I very much do. I mean, listen to yourself. You expressly do not count yourself among the cohort of giant-robots-fight-giant-monsters potential filmgoers, safe to say. So clearly you shouldn't see it. I mean ... I would have thought that was obvious. Unless ... I'm sorry, is someone forcing you to go see it? Are there armed gangs of street toughs employed by Universal Studios going house-to-house and frog-marching the hapless citizenry into Pacific Rim Uprising showings across this nation?

REPORTER #1: No. Look, I'm just sayi-

CRITIC: Yes, you are just saying, not asking, and I'm here to answer questions about the film Pacific Rim Uprising. This is not a forum for your smug condemnation of the fact that a given piece of popular culture is popular. This is a press conference, not Facebook. Security, kindly remove this person.
