I watch King Kong feeling very up beat about seeing this old movie epic as a new "remade"movie epic. There is so much to see and hear,you'll never believe what was added to this remade movie epic. Watch the movie maker and ships captain check out the island, be prepared for great heart pounding action , wait for the first site on KING KONG! The Movie is fast pace and action packed after about 40 mins in this three hour movie. Keep your eye's on the island, things get pretty hairy. The actress Naomi Watts will have wanting to save King Kong in no time, she is a good actress. As I watched I began to figure out the ending, I hate knowing what is going to happen.I was Hoping that it wasn't going to end in the way it did , but more so I wanted a new ending for a change,something to remember. After the scene in the city I felt the movies bottomed out, it seem to drag to the sad but sluggish ending. Nothing new at the ending but the way the giant used his strength to climb tall building was amazing, but the ending made me cry, it made me feel angry and sad not at all good. I just wish they had done the ending alot different. Enjoy this movie it's has many good parts worth the three hours.Read full review
Poor monkey! This is a visually stunning movie well produced and entertaining. It's a little intense for younger (sub 12 year old) kids, although I saw it in a movie theater where six and seven year olds were watching. I could just imagine the nightmares. One thing I really liked was the graphics and how realistic King Kong was. They did a wonderful job capturing the emotions of Kong, the facial expressions were almost human. The references to the original movie were a nice homage.

People have been waiting to see what would become of King Kong ever since Godzilla got his remake awhile back. "King Kong" takes a much different direction by setting the whole thing in the 1930s. But the feel is fantastic and it is all seems much more adventurous. Special effects are amazing and it is almost just as much dinosaurs and giant bugs as it is Kong. The whole trip is actually a very sad love story when its all over. The cast does a great job but the real star is Kong and you will find yourself rooting for the big ape up until the end. This is a must see movie so you have to check it out. 4/5
I decided to buy this dvd because I remember the origional version from my childhood. At first when I heard Jack Black was one of the leading characters of this film I had my doubts. I was amazed how well he played the roll. The story was great, special effects were near perfect. They exceeded my expectations when they were on the island, non stop on your toes action, pretty much till the end of the film. Overall can rate this at 8.5 out of 10, a must have for the collection.
While I expected a King Kong story, I didn't anticipate the drama of the ship lost at sea, the voodoo-like natives or the Jurassic Park-like adventure on Kong's island. The movie definitely has an art-deco flavor to it with its wonderful depiction of early New York City. It's a 3 hour movie so make lots of popcorn!
