King Kong: Skull Island, 2017

Rating: 1/10 (2 August 2017)

I hated this film beyond belief!
Why are the monsters so huge? I know I will happily suspend my disbelief concerning the monsters, as I did for the original King Kong, but when confronted with this hugeness I have to wonder whether there's room for any more than just one of each creature! It isn't needed.
One thing I did like was how bright and colourful the film is. It's a bold statement to make when most films of this period seem to be shot entirely in black. Come on, where's the colour? Where's the light?!
Terrible script, there is nothing original about this film! Why does it have an all-star cast? Samuel L Jackson? Brie Larson? Tom Hiddleston? JOHN GOODMAN? Why?! They're hardly used.
I will not be watching this film again.
Watch King Kong, 1933, Son of Kong, 1933, King Kong vs Godzilla, 1962, King Kong Escapes, 1967, and King Kong, 2005.
