"Kong: Skull Island (2017), directed by Jordan Vogt-Roberts, delivers a visually stunning and action-packed adventure that breathes new life into the iconic monster movie genre. Set in 1973, the film follows a diverse group of scientists, soldiers, and adventurers as they journey to an uncharted island in the Pacific, only to encounter the mighty King Kong.
From the start, the film captures your attention with its vibrant visuals and epic scale. The lush, otherworldly landscapes of Skull Island are beautifully rendered, making the island feel like a character in its own right. Cinematographer Larry Fong's work is nothing short of spectacular, with each frame brimming with color and detail.
Of course, the real star is Kong himself. The film does an excellent job of portraying him as both a terrifying force of nature and a sympathetic, almost regal figure. The creature design and special effects are top-notch, making Kong's interactions with both the environment and the human characters feel believable and impactful.
Despite these shortcomings, Kong: Skull Island is a visually striking and entertaining addition to the MonsterVerse. It successfully reimagines the King Kong mythos for a new generation, offering a thrilling ride that monster movie fans will surely enjoy.

"This was such an awesome way to introduce the idea that there are lots of monsters in this version of earth, not just Godzilla. Making Kong so much bigger was a great idea seeing as Godzilla has gotten so massive to continue making him tower over our cities, if Kong didn't grow too he wouldn't matter at all in this universe"
