Surprisingly entertaining

Rating: 8/10 (11 March 2017)

To be honest, I didn't expect much about Kong: Skull Island. Actually I was just waiting to see pretentious effect rumble movie. I was glad to see I was wrong. Of course the biggest thing in this movie are great CGI-effects, but surprisingly there is something more too. There is some great ragging to Americans about Vietnam war and also a reminding that sometimes it is better to let earths nature to alone or we might face even bigger problems in future. Quite clear parable to climate change and present human kind. Even movie has these "deeper meanings" it is fundamentally funny and stupid effect rumble movie. Of course there is also that Beauty and the Beast aspect, like in every Kong movie.
The storytelling and movie action are thrilling and great to watch. Some great evergreen songs slates movie action and cgi-effects greatly and quite enjoyable way. At the beginning of the movie it is very clearly who are the bad guys of yhe story and earn to get killed by Kong. Actually Kong is the stories Biggest lonely hero (in all way), who keeps safe the rest of Island inhabitants.
Although the story is quite stupid and brainless effect rumble, it has it's good moments too. Crazy scenes is easy to laugh and in many way they are the best part of the movie. CGI-effects are great and in their silliness surprisingly believable. Director Jordan Vogt-Roberts has created very enjoyable neoromanticism Kong-story in quite old fashion way. The biggest lesson of the movie is that the human is the biggest monster of the nature and they should learn their lesson, before we have to face even bigger catastrophe. Kong: Skull Island is very entertaining CGI movie and well done new Kong story.
This movie is in it's best when you watch it from big screen. 3D works well and is well worth of a movie ticket price.
