I don't often recommend spending the extra to see a film in 3D or on a massive screen. Kong: Skull Island can be considered the second instalment in Legendary Entertainment's 'MonsterVerse' franchise, which previously brought us 2014's Godzilla. It's not really a remake of the original 1933 film as Kong never leaves Skull Island, so let's call it a reimaging of the King Kong story. But really, it's the motion captured, fierce and well-articulated Kong who has the most impact in this big, B-grade scripted jungle monster movie. Cast: Brie Larson, Tom HiddlestonDirector: Jordan Vogt-RobertsRunning Time: 118 minsRating: M (Violence and offensive language)Verdict: Jurassic World on steroids.
