Redundant Blockbuster

Rating: 1/10 (5 August 2017)

This movie is redundant like most of the recent blockbuster movies. There was a time when movies like Pirates of the Caribbean, Iron Man or Transformers introduced something new, interesting or at least spectacular but after dozens of movies like that story lines, characters, camera work and so on resemble each other so much that it is a waste of time to watch any of them. Kong may have one or two interesting moments, the rest is replaceable, absolutely predictable, full of clichés. If you'd leave out the polished special effects blockbusters like Kong would look like C-movies. Famous actors like Samuel Jackson bring nothing to it, it is rather sad to see what they are willing to do for some money. And finally: is it necessary to make a reboot/remake of a twelve year old and much better movie (Peter Jackson's King Kong)?
