“Kong: Skull Island” is better, lighter on its feet (digital feet and human feet) and more fun than its reported $190 million production budget would suggest. I honestly don’t know what you’d call it: a franchise reboot? A sequel to Peter Jackson’s 2005 “King Kong,” which I admired, but didn’t enjoy like this one? Director Jordan Vogt-Roberts’ film zips along and treats the Kong mythology seriously without getting balled up in the storytelling. I saw little in Vogt-Roberts’ first feature to indicate the deftness and buoyant spirit he brings to “Skull Island.” This time, the money’s on the screen, but it bought a really good movie, too.
