Review of Skull Island

Skull Island (2023– )
8/10
Really nice way to get King Kong to younger fans and to all Calico Fans
25 June 2023
I am an old man, i remember back in the eighties the King Kong tv show, really loved it.

Then i got big enough to watch the film the 1933 original on Betamax with my uncle, !What a great evening!

Of course the movie was way better than the cartoon, but... and know so many years, and some movies latter. Netflix announces this show, i didn't like the trailer...but i hate trailers anyway, last night i decide to give a shot...was really worried by the way Netflix have been treating movies and tv shows has ammunition on their cultural war.

But what a surprise their first episode was great no so good animation but the suspense and the characters were enough to make me want to see the second episode And boy was I hooked Legendary did a great job respecting the tradition of Kong while keeping it fresh enough for young people to jump onboard the Skull Island wagon.

It s has something for the legendary movie series fans, for the Old King Kong Cartoons fans, even for fans of the Calico, i know there s some of those out there.
