Pretty much what I'm thinking, there was a lot of b-grade actors in that movie that I can shake a stick at, not to mention on why the producers hired the death note diretor is beyond me.Shun Oguri was underused in his role and the mecha/pilot angle was weak. The KOTM Ghidorah connection was barely added in and there was no mention of the eco-terrorist group, unless they're saving that for a future film. Bryan Tyree Henry was annoying. He was more Don Knotts than Djimon Hounsou. Skarsgård was fine, he spend a lot of the film looking shocked and surprised. It's a shame the characters from KOTM were cut from the film. The movie just ends with a weird use of The Hollies. Kong Skull Island at least used better songs and had better animu references.
I swear much of the budget goes to the marketing instead of good writers and set pieces, what a wasted portenal.
