Kong Skull Island was a great popcorn flick. I really enjoy the fresh and new take on Skull Island and Kong. This movie won't win any major awards outside of special effects, but I do suggest to check it out. This our first original Kong movie since the 60's (We had two remakes and one 80's sequel). I look forward to more in the Monstersverse.

Don't forget it's also the only good Kong movie since the 60s.

Wow, Kain. I'm not used to you liking things.
Jokes aside, I enjoyed it a lot too. Really rough around the edges and oddly paced at a few points, but regardless it was a very entertaining spectacle of a movie. Make sure you stick around until the very end of the credits too. The final scene at the end there is pretty hype. |

Holy hell. This movie. I enjoyed it a lot more than I expected for the action flick that it was.
Loved the amount of screentime Kong got. And you absolutely must stay through the credits. Rodan! Mothra! Ghidorah! I can't wait. Used to liking characters Sam Jackson plays so growing to hate him so much during the course of the movie felt weird. I mean, I loved him, but I hated him. Especially because I could see where he was coming from. He did a good job.

i'm half-hoping someone somewhere pitched the alternate title "Viet-Kong" for this.
Fun film, great creature action. Much better than 2014's "Godzilla." and interesting fact: reading this films' credits will actually SPOIL the post-credits scene for you. |

Saw it on Saturday, I really liked it. I'm glad they didn't retread the same story we seen 3 different times. Then again with the rematch with Godzilla on the horizan I can see why they didn't

Kong Skull Island Round 2 - Man, I felt like I was watching an entirely different movie compared to what I saw last week. Yeah, the characters are still lackluster outside of Packard and Marlow, and most are there to die, but this was a damn good monster flick. It's on par with Godzilla 2014 and the post-credit scene was awesome! Just like before, the camera work and cinematography are top notch. That scene with Kong fighting off the helicopters with the sunrise behind him is badass. I can now say that I give it a slid 8/10 stars. Looking forward to owning this one on BD.
