Review of Kong: Skull Island (2017) by David S — 26 Feb 2018
The best King Kong movie to date. Yes, better than the original (1933), and better than probably my previous favorite from 1976 with Jessica Lange. That first moment the helicopter's encounter Kong, oh man, that was awesome.
This Kong kicks serious ass. The other creatures inhabiting this island were amazing, too. Samuel L. Jackson may have played his role a little too over the top (just think Sam Jackson in...oh, all of his roles), but it's at times effective and energizing.
John C. Reilly was great, Brie Larson, everybody was great. This was one of those epic movies that only comes along every so often. Kudos on Kong.
