This movie has a great setup. All the characters are introduced and assembled into a team for the exploration of "Skull Island". The computerized effects are pretty awesome and if your are a visual nerd like me then it makes the movie a must see regardless of the content.
Something that was unexpected was to find out there is a sub terrainan world beneath the island. This is where the really bad creatures hang out. The twist allows the King to become one of the good guys.
Then there is the music speakers on the helicopters and the river boat. If as taken directly from apocalypse now. I think the movie may have been made for the older crowd, the boomers.
It is past mid-point when the movie gets kind of "corny" forgive the cliché.
It is just they all march into the grave. I don’t want to spoil it for you but,
the movie runs out of gas.
In the search of real science fiction I would rate this move about a six on a
scale from one to ten. However there are some great actors, John Goodman for
one, and Samuel L Jackson.
I would recommend seeing the movie, have some fun, and don’t expect too much. It
will be a blast.
