What to Know

Critics Consensus

A rousing if faintly recycled reincarnation of King Kong's latest cinematic foray, Skull Island succeeds in its aim of putting a more adult twist on Saturday morning cartoons of yore.

Filled with huge tentacled beasts in the sea and monster-sized land creatures on the infamous home of King Kong, Skull Island makes you feel like a kid who just discovered the best comic book ever. Go to Full Review
Brian Lowry CNN.com 06/24/2023
Designed as a TV foray into the cinematic “MonsterVerse” occupied by Kong and Godzilla, the series that washes ashore via Netflix is mostly aimed at adults, just not particularly well. Go to Full Review

3/5
As a show, this is a departure from the format of other Kong stories, but still has some merit. Skull Island introduces some young diverse characters, but the multitude of story lines can be somewhat confusing to follow. Go to Full Review

It’s great to see a show so consistently enamored with the idea that no matter where you try to hide, there is something around that sees you as lunch. Go to Full Review
Peter Martin EverythingButHorror.com 06/27/2023
What captivated me about the series was, first of all, the exceptional writing by Brian Duffield, who unfolds layers of his characters progressively, amidst the series' action-first priorities. ... frightfully easy to binge all eight episodes. Go to Full Review

Noura M @RT80098515 Aug 25 (i'm not that good in english so sorry for that) I really appreciat this animated serie, the characters are well writted and the story have a very good potential. Maybe a little too long for some moments of the story but i'd like to see an other season ^^ See more Ry N @RyGuy Aug 8 A group of monster hunters become stranded on Skull Island after they pick up a castaway. Once I looked past the ridiculousness of a monstrous pet pug, I enjoyed the first season as it focuses more on the island than it does Kong. See more Robert M @RT53868205 Jul 19 The reason why I think Skull Island should have a season 2 is because of the monsters and the group of teenagers Annie, Mike and Charlie and the monster that they’re with and the good monster Kong and the love of the group password for each other See more Cristian s @cristiansj 05/11/2025 Producto orientado para chicos, entretenida pero simple. El primero y los últimos 2 capítulos son los únicos que valieron la pena. See more Laze T @Christian173 01/18/2025 I was ready to clown this show tbh I am really just watching the monsterverse in chronological order and this was here and you know what holy it surprised me I got invested in the characters and that ending i actually want A SEASON 2!!! See more Malachy J @RT17132529 03/29/2024 Something Monsterverse fans will have fun with. Showing more of Kong and the new villain the kraken. See more Read all reviews
