Kong: Skull Island (2017)
Before there was Kong, there was Frankenstein’s monster. The half man, half robot, was one of the biggest nightmares for us as kids. But after many years of cinematic monsters, comes a rebirth of a different kind of on screen atrocity. This depiction of Kong is essentially one of the more memorable on screen monsters in recent years. This wasn't particularly on my radar as a must watch, but, I am glad I did. At first, this film struck me as a potential failure-(even though the trailers made it look good). From the start of the movie to its end, I was completely entertained by something as awesome and action-packed such as this film. Not only are the visuals and action sequences in "Skull Island" stellar, but also, the cast and hilarious script-(audiences can thank cast member John C. Reilly for this one.) He alongside Brie Larson, Tom Hiddleston, and Samuel L. Jackson give terrific performances trying to subdue this anxiety-provoking monster. To keep the film on it...
