Ten years after the Pan Pacific Defense Corps unleashed an army of Jaegers - 25-storey tall robots operated by mind-melded humans - former pilot Jake Pentecost is contacted by estranged sister Mako Mori. She implores him to return to the PPDC to head off the threat posed by Liwen Shao, chief executive of Shao Industries, who intends to replace the Jaegers with unmanned drones. Haunted by ghosts of the past, Jake eventually agrees to mentor a 15-year-old cadet called Amara, whose family were crushed to death during one monster attack. Director Steven S DeKnight's literally blockbusting sci-fi sequel, starring John Boyega, Scott Eastwood and Cailee Spaeny
