Aaron White’s review published on Letterboxd:
I love when you can really feel a director's style in a genre they haven't previously explored. That is definitely the case here with Wingard and his use of neon and Junkie XL"s incredible electronic score. Everything fit perfectly and the tone of this throughout was just pure, unbridled FUN. It strikes the right balance of explaining ridiculous things without ever taking itself seriously and giving us copious amounts of the glorious monster smashing action we came to see. I had a blast and am so glad that I caught this in IMAX for the first time while also not having seen the trailer and not having any surprises spoiled. Awesome, awesome experience. #TeamKINGKong FOREVVVVVVVVVER!
