Never before has a movie reminded me this much of the video game Rage 2. And just like Rage 2, there are worse things, but also better things.

Kong: Skull Island Review

Like a 2012 Instagram reel, much of this feature is an unwatchable slurry of color filters on top of slathered flares, smokes and effects. Looking past that, which is no easy task, there is a serviceable monster movie with rock-solid computer-generated imagery. At least they had those priorities set.

The narrative isn't the best; the real monster is man yada yada. John C. Reilly provides disarming comedic relief, between soldiers getting impaled or torn to shreds. Skull Island really is all over the place, but in the end, the captivating Kong makes the effort worth the struggle. Whatever they paid these animators, it wasn't enough. They put this flick on their backs and brought it home, when not even Loki could do it.
