2020 - RANKED
Lil' Paul deserved better.
I was completely ready to just push everything aside and enjoy Alien in the ocean. But this is all just so bland and boring, there proved to be no fun to be had. Bummer.
My big takeaway is that it took Hollywood so long to do Cthulu. Justice for my large devil son.

I kinda loved this???
A smooth score, nice aesthetic, and it’s mid-century private eye throwback story made this an incredibly enjoyable watch for me. Can’t say it’s a great movie or even a very good one, but I just loved the time I spent in the theater. Gotta give it credit for that.

Of all of those entries like Cube, Exam, and Circle this is my least favorite, but I still enjoyed it.
The gruesomeness of the violence got under my skin a little bit but unlike other movies (cough cough John Wick cough cough Logan) I thought it was incredibly vital…

I haven't seen a movie that is so aggressively ok in a long time.
If all you want is to see Kong walk around and fight shit occasionally, you'll have a blast with this movie.
If you want all of that and fleshed out characters, humor and a feeling of satisfaction, maybe watch Aliens instead.
