Nobody leaves Skull Island unchanged. In Depression-era New York, 1933, showman Carl Denham strong-arms his cast and a hired ship's crew toward an uncharted coast rumored into existence. Once ashore, actress Ann Darrow is seized by Kong, a colossal ape who claims her as his own, while screenwriter Jack Driscoll and the sailors push into a jungle ruled by prehistoric predators. Peter Jackson stages the expedition on an enormous canvas: teeming wilderness, relentless spectacle, and a beast with unmistakable feeling behind its eyes.
