It was really ok.

There's some good sequences and it's shot really well but there's too many characters with no arcs to them and they made a weird point to showcase Kong just hanging out for no reason and they somehow managed to make a gigantic ape boring.

Even more boring were his island enemies (the monsters)

The Vietnam angle was wasted as it was never used to say anything effective other than harken back to a much better movie.

The plot itself was really thin and none of the set-pieces were inventive enough to overcome that fact.

Some of the dialogue was terrible and despite a solid cast i didn't care for any of them, other than Kong and John C. Reily (without him this film is very average imo).

The highlights were the opening and closing action sequences, a stellar John C. Reily performance, and I guess the post-credits scene was pretty exciting.

It was better than I thought it would be
But it was mostly just shallow entertainment

What's with the spoilers, so now ill wait a year until i see it then i can read your post and respond properly?

oh its out already nvm, went pretty under the radar

waiting for the mummy + guardians 2
