The movie was really good! It's a three hour movie, but it doesn't drag of the flow of a good story line. It reminded me of Goonies (old school), Indiana Jones, and Jurassic Park all rolled into one big fantastic movie.... Full review

Ive been reading some of these fowl reviews of the movie. Just to shed light on one major thing. Mr. Jackson wasnt conveying a love relationship between the girl and Kong. Moreso, as a father/child relationship. The girl's admiration for Kong... Full review

If the LORD OF THE RINGS trilogy cemented Peter Jackson as a director of the highest order and made him the new king of the world, KING KONG seals his position as a Director and eliminates any trace of doubt... Full review

If it had been announced that a remake of the classic "King Kong" was being made without the name Peter Jackson attached to it, there is no doubt audiences would have been outraged. But after the enormous success of the... Full review

I agree with most of you that the effects were spectacular, but judging a film on this single criterion makes one a shallow viewer. You must judge the story on its completeness, the characters must be judged for their depth... Full review
