King Kong

The Bottom Line: Go rent or buy Kong now

Review: Peter Jackson's King Kong is full of thrills and excitement that fail to dissappoint. This film simply is amazing and if I were to ever spend eternity forced to watch one movie, this would be it! Well, then, what an odd way to open up my review...

Review: While I did find much of the beginning of the movie slow, the action sequences and special effects made up for the short falls. Kong's movements seemed natural and seamless as he moved among both worlds. The battle with the T-Rexes was very well...

The Bottom Line: King Kong is much improved from the 1932 version, and that's the way it should be, period.

Review: I watched King Kong about a week after the movie came out. The tickets were sold out during the first day, as they often are, so I had to wait until about a week later when there at least a few empty seats. That's the measure of how popular this...

The Bottom Line: I highly recommend anybody who likes the other versions to check this one out. It is far better than the 1976 remake and the Japanese versions.

Review: The most recent version of KING KONG(2005) as I type this review is totally amazing and possibly the best version ever. I will keep credit where credit is due with the original version that came out in 1933 because that was the original and the...

The Bottom Line: Out shines all previous Kong movies and should be a blast for all viewers.

Review: Director Peter Jackson got into the film business because of this film. Sort of. Jackson has been quoted many times as saying that he became a director so that he would be able to remake King Kong. It was a childhood dream of his. It has also been...

The Bottom Line: See King Kong, do not wait for the DVD, or cable release, it must be seen on the big screen. I know there are flaws, but, that?s entertainment.

Review: Believe it or not I have not watched the original release of King Kong, though I have seen the 1975 release with Jessica Lange and it was rather forgettable. But then came news that Peter Jackson fresh off the phenomenal success of the Lord of The...

The Bottom Line: Go and see King Kong on the big screen if you can - it's a modern day epic in the tradition of the Lord of the Rings trilogy.

Review: So I left the theatre and we're walking back to the car and we've been talking about the acting for about 5 minutes, and I suddenly realise I haven't mentioned any character but Kong. The time has finally come where the 3D modelling, animation,...

Review: The setting takes place in 1933 New York, and there is an overly ambitious movie producer that coerces his cast and hires a ship crew to travel to mysterious Skull Island, where they encounter Kong, a giant ape who is immediately smitten with...

The Bottom Line: King Kong was a very good movie that I ended up liking much more than I originally thought I would.

Review: In 2005, several remakes of older movies were released. Some were much better than others. Ever since I heard that Peter Jackson was planning to make a new version of King Kong I was interested in seeing the movie even though I never saw the...

The Bottom Line: Although it doesn't make any sense and is extremely long, I think most people will enjoy this movie. It is pretty good.

Review: I was skeptical about whether King Kong would actually be a good movie or not. It looked like the type of movie that could either be amazing or be a piece of garbage. I've never watched the original Kong, so I wasn't really afraid of Peter Jackson...
