I saw KONG: Skull Island earlier.

Pretty fun movie, lots of Giant Ape destroying things/Giant Ape fighting other Giant things moments. Cool cinematography and good soundtrack. Setting the movie in the 1970's worked really well imo.

John Goodman/John C Reilly/Samuel Jackson/Tom "Loki" Hiddleston/Brie Larson all pretty good.


If you see it - stay for after the credits...


Godzilla, mofos!

Saw this last week at a special screening. Very fun. And the hype is coming.

So like...what a turd

Movie spends the first act, a solid 45 min, doing a slow build to the reveal of Kong. But in order to get some adrenaline the prologue does a kong reveal. So the entire 45 is a slow build to a reveal theyve already done.

Cardboard characters. Actually there arent characters. Just arc types.

If id been drunk and walked in on the 3rd act this would have been good.

Just seen it. Thought it was good. Only thing is I thought Kong was going to give a nod to Mason and Conrad like the indigenous people did after he saved her and was walking away but he didn't. Thought it would be a good way to tie in to the indigenous people considering he was their God but other wise a damn good movie.
