better than rumored

I only watched it now, because the reputation of this film was not good before, but looking at it now, the rating is only a reference value, and the film is actually very good.

The picture of the whole movie is very good. I feel that the bright tones that are used in various mixing cuts have different flavors in different scenes, including the scene of the entire Skull Island, which is amazing even from a mobile phone.

The plot itself is not bad. Reasonable differences are the highlights. There are also various flashpoints of human nature, and it criticizes the hegemony of the United States. The inhabitants of the island are reminiscent of the Indians. Fortunately, "civilization" did not destroy them.

The fighting scenes are also very cool, now I'm looking forward to Godzilla 2 even more!

Kong: Skull Island quotes

  • Hank Marlow: Hey, what happened with the war? Did we win?

    James Conrad: Which one?

    Hank Marlow: Uh-huh. That makes sense.

  • [after credits]

    James Conrad: You just gonna sit there? In the dark? You're enjoying this, right? Is this fun for you? I promise I won't tell the Russians.

    Mason Weaver: I promise *I* will tell the Russians.

    James Conrad: She's gonna tell the Russians.

    [throws pencil at the reverse mirror]

    James Conrad: Why are you keeping us here?

    Mason Weaver: I want to go home.

    James Conrad: We get it. There was no island. We were never on an island.

    Houston Brooks: [enters the room] Island? What island?

    James Conrad: Brooks, what the hell is going on?

    Houston Brooks: Welcome to MONARCH. This island is just the beginning.

    San: There's more out there.

    James Conrad: What do you mean more?

    Houston Brooks: This world never belonged to us. It belonged to them. The question is, how long before they take it back. Kong is not the only king.
