Review of Kong: Skull Island (2017) by Timone — 01 Mar 2018
Of course King Kong is the king of all gorilla's and T-Rex's and lions. You could make it clear the original King Kong is a masterpiece with stop-motion animation and now they have remake it in the 70's and the sequel in the 80's starring Linda Hamilton, now they have to re-remake it into a three hour run directed by Peter Jackson and now 12 years later they've made another Kong movie which was distributed by Warner Bros.
Pictures. I guess this is more like a reboot to me like Godzilla to be exact. And now while I think of this, I bet they're making a movie franchise called MonsterVerse. After Godzilla and they made this, I just watched the after credits scene where somebody said that the mission is not over.
When I saw a picture of Godzilla at the end, I think they're going to make a crossover movie called Godzilla vs. Kong which is going to be released in 2020. Okay, the characters are solidly good, well, I think the main character of James Conrad played by Tom Hiddleston is boring.
He doesn't get enough dialogue through out but he still gets his character at the third act. I think this is the only movie that Kong doesn't die. I'm sure thought about that at King Kong Lives. Samuel L.
Jackson is good in this as Preston Packard. I think that the line he says is from Jurassic Park where he says ''Hold on to your butts.'' The opening is just silly. I don't know. Maybe I'm just got distracted by fact that every movie is about creature's, there's always a silly moment.
Not all horror films are like that, they can get serious. If you enjoyed the monster movies, they will get you satisfied and thrilled. Sure you can get past the silliest parts but I think in this one there's only one in the opening.
It goes on a whole new level where it's all taken place in the lost world. Okay, I know it's a different lost world but work with me here. It will satisfy you with solid acting and good effects and it will be invested through out the whole experience.
Take a look and discover it yourself.
