Warning. If you don't like either Dwayne Johnson or the King Kong style monster disaster movie, set this one aside. You absolutely must be a fan to wade through this.
At the beginning, a scientist on a space station is struggling to save some genetically
engineered samples from a mutated super-rat. It is a definite indication of where this movie is going. The
samples plummet to Earth, and land in three locations. One happens to
hit ground in a San Diego Wildlife Sanctuary managed by Davis Okoye
(Johnson). Davis’ favorite beast is a giant albino gorilla named George,
and the clever animal happens upon one of the genetic samples. Before
you know it, George is growing at a never-before-seen rate, accompanied
by increased aggression and insatiable hunger. He kills a bear, escapes,
and, well, lots of things go boom.
There are two other mutated beasts, and while the company who created the mutations and the US military are trying to kill the beasts, Johnson is trying to save them. He has a former scientist-employee of the company who has a guess at where the antidote is kept, and there are a lot of battle scenes and up close encounters you would associate with a Johnson meets CGI film. Very diversionary.
