A dry, faceless, blockbuster with some good things.

Rating: 4/10 (19 March 2017)

After enjoying the Gareth Edwards oddly significant Godzilla, I actually looked forward to Jordan Vogt-Roberts Kong Skull Island. Godzilla left me with an impression that the producers of the "monster- verse" movies had restraint from these films becoming "Transformers" levels of stupid. But after Kong, I still have that mindset, just lowered a bit. Kong is not overly dumb, it's just too dry to become anything other than the stereotype blockbuster.
