A thrilling monster mash, this movie is high on the monster mash and the imagery surrounding it, but low on plot and characterization. Read more

Kong: Skull Island certainly has its moments, and if you see this on a big enough screen you'll get your share of spectacle, though seeing Kong in action on his home turf is nowhere near as visually interesting as witnessing him destroy New York.

The magnitude of Kong is quite impressive and the visual effects and general action is enough to keep you entertained.

Misschien heel kritisch, maar heb mij gewoon bijna de gehele film zitten te irriteren aan bijna alles en dat lijkt mij niet de bedoeling. Read more

It settled on neither locked into silliness trying to be serious. It just wasn’t fun.

Very hard to connect with. And it’s a shame, because when it comes to the monsters, it’s a pretty good monster movie.

Een zeer zelfbewuste film en neemt zichzelf niet altijd even serieus, maar houdt je wel op het puntje van je stoel en weet goed om te springen met enkele genreclichés.

Een gemiste kans en het levert een spektakel zonder inhoud op. Hoewel het vermakelijk is, voelt de film vrij doelloos aan.
