I was never a huge fan of King Kong but adding Tom Hiddleston was a brilliant stroke of genius. I love him as Loki, and he did not disappoint in this movie, nor did King Kong. I liked the new spin of the mysterious Skull Island, and the…

Set in the same world as the 2014 Gozilla reboot, in this movie the monster hunting organization Monarch is making use of a rare clearing of the weather to visit Skull Island, home to King Kong. The actors all commit well to their roles,…
I love seeing a good looking CG Kong beating up on other good looking CG creatures. Everyone in a supporting role does their best to steal the show but there's only one King.

Superb are visual effects! One of the best entertaining King Kong movies.
However, there two bloopers: the Japanese pilots never used a parachute and they died with the plane if it went down; the US WW2 veteran speaks Japanese, which…

I love Brie Larson dont know why all these men hate her so much because she's a feminist I guess, any way shes a great actress and drop-dead gorgeous, the rest of the film is for 12-year-olds, Samuel L Jackson doing the same shit now in…
This fairly excellent movie offers a nice glimpse at an only-mildly-cancerous pre-Captain Marvel version of Brie Larson, though it would probably have been improved by her absence. The nature of her relationship with Kong is a distinctly…
I love all the Kong movies except for the Jeff Bridges version. This particular adaptation does not follow the old premise of capturing the ape and bringing him to New York City, rather its about a large contingent of explorer/scientists…
This was a terrible movie. All of the characters must be insane to make the choices that they do. I realize Samuel L Jackson is supposed to insane but the other characters aren't supposed to be.

Kong smash! Lots of good actors here looking lost amidst all the CGI beasties and explosions. At least they try to treat the natives with a little more nuance than Peter Jackson did in his atrocious "King Kong" remake.

The grandeur of the King Kong story has become grandiose and flat in this noisy, big monster clobberin' time fightfest. Sammuel L Jackson's squawky-voiced, bulging-eyed delivery failed to convince me of his blood mania.
A small nod to…

Given the cast, I expected more from this flick. Lots of noise, roaring, fire and fury, but the story line was weak, while the special effects were terrific. Great Saturday afternoon fare for adolescents.

As visually great as you would expect one of these movies to be though the story is also what you would expect with an interesting 'connection' to the Vietnam War....

Now this is how you write a monster movie! Even though I like Godzilla more, Kong: Skull Island was a better movie then Godzilla 2014. It had way more monster action, the final fight scene was epic and way more visible, and the connection…
Great re-envisioning of a classic movie. Although my standard is the Jack Black one so.... my view isn't coming from a classical perspective.
Can't wait to see Godzilla vs. BA KONG!
