Going back to when you know what it's on the other side. Exploring the unknown? There's more to see. Remember the 1933 movie "King Kong"? Well, this is like happened before the blonde beauty, before he was removed from his home. "KONG: SKULL ISLAND", is the origin of the majestic ape that ruled the island. We do know that Kong is the last of his kind. His family was wiped out by some reptilian creatures that terrorized the island. When two groups of people come to the island: an expedition group, and a military escort led by Lt. Colonel Packard(Samuel L. Jackson). His team laid out bombs on the island that awoke the protector, Kong. He attacks the team and scatters the expedition team. In 1944, an airplane pilot name Hank Marlow(John C. Reilly) encountered Kong along with his Japanese adversary. When they became friends, his friend Ikari was killed by the Skullcrawlers, and he has his sword to remember him with. When the bombs awoke the Skullcrawlers, it was up to Kong to stop them. Knowing that the colonel is a vindictive madman, they would rather help Kong instead. And the legend of Kong is known. Samuel L. Jackson recalls the "Hold on to your butts" catchphrase made famous in "Jurassic Park". Too bad he had to stoop so low to destroy a legend. I remember watching the 2005 version of the 1933 remake. The fight scenes are remarkable. I liked it when Kong ripped out the viscera of the Skullcrawler. No wonder Kong was such a legend. This is great. A must see film! 5 Stars!
