Title: Plays like a parody
Review: With Jack Black, everything plays like a comedy, a parody. He is forever arching his eyebrows and bugging his eyes, foreshadowing the evil about to hit. I'm not sure that was the intention. It makes this third version of Kong the most hokey by far. Also, the movie is a real drag until Skull Island, and that's about 45 minutes in, way too long to wait for the action to start. Most of the movie looks like digital special effects. Was anything real at all? The end is agonizing, but not in a good way. This should have been cut to two hours or less.
