Just as Pacific Rim Uprising followed Pacific Rim, so Atlantic Rim spawns Resurrection the the mockbuster factory. At least this low-rent sequel goes off in its own direction after the first act. A kaiju attacks Los Angeles, a highly-improbable team of robot-jockeys attempt to bring it down whilst battling cheap-looking sets and barely-successful CGI. Just above average for this type of fare thanks to a couple of reasonable performances and a story that is not stretched too thinly, Atlantic Rim Resurrection does what you would expect and no more.
