Kong:Skull Island(2017)Movie Review

Rating: 6/10 (8 January 2019)

In the year of 1973 a group of people travell to Skull Island, with the intuit to explore the misterious place.They find themselves in life-threatnning situations thanks to the creatures inhabiting the place.
There have been many different sequels, reboots,etc about King Kong over the years.Now it´s time for Warner Brothers to add a new version to the catalogue.
Let´s start with the script, it´s decent, it works, but it´s clear that the goal it´s not to tell a compelling story, the director is more interested in the big action sequences and the entertainnment value involving the creatures, actually those action scenes are impressive, exciting, well directed and the visual effects very well done.
The cast is good mainly Samuel L.Jackson and John C.Reilly, Tom Hiddelston and Brie Larson were decent, the rest of the cast is fine.The secondary characters don´t do anything and they´re not particulary necessary for the movie.
The visual effects as a said are very good, the creatures look real, Kong looks very expressive. The cinematography also worths a nod, there are magnificent large open exterior plans of the island,the nature,the sunset and others involving saturated orange and blue colors.
Kong Skull Island doesn´t have the best of the scripts, or does it have developed characters.However it has good directing, visual effects, action sequences and cinematography.It´s a big monster movie, and is made simply to entertain.
6.7/10
