so... "That's possibly the first negative thing I've heard about Skull Island here!" now we have two.
I'll take both opinions into consideration and maybe go with an Amazon Video rental before parting with 25 quid!

You can rent it for £1.99 currently if you're a prime member.
It's definitely worth watching, don't get me wrong, it just isn't worth shelling out £25 when you could get something much better.

I've done that with a couple of other films (John Wick: Chapter 2 and The Lego Batman Movie) this evening, redeeming some vouchers I had to get them for 99p each. I don't have any patches left, so I'll probably spend £1.99 for Kong: Skull Island tomorrow after reviewing the two mentioned above and carrying on with my dissertation.

I was at the match when they were filming this. They introduced Samuel L Jackson to the crowd at half time. It was the first time he'd been to a football match and he got a fantastic reception. He became a Liverpool supporter because of this and has been back for games several times since and always tweets about Liverpool.

Love the film by the way.

I've seen a few people say the blu-ray cover is terrible when I've posted elsewhere. I do like the UK poster art, but this one used in Canada and a few other places.

I can see why they went with it. The US poster features Robert Carlyle in a Liverpool shirt and the UK version has the Liver building on it.

Small things for sure, but details that may put off fans of other teams from buying the film.

Love the film by the way.

That beats the time A Touch of Frost filmed at the Shay (Halifax Town football ground) and I got to meet Sir David Jason (briefly) because my dad worked for the club at the time

Back on topic: gonna preorder it myself, great film
