King Kong Movie Review by star757

King Kong Movie Review by star757


Buy the Movie King Kong

I enjoyed the first half of this movie, but then it got a little long. The movie is just over 3 hours long so be prepared for that. This is a remake, but I've never seen the original King Kong. It starts in New York City during the great depression. Anne Darrow, played by Naomi Watts, is a starving out of work vaudeville player. Jack Black plays a movie director who has big ideas that the studio doesn't want to play for. He isn't afraid to do what it takes to get what he wants, even if it hurts others. He has a map to a mysterious Skull Island where he plans to make his movie. When his lead actress quits on him he comes across Anne and decides she's perfect. You learn that he will lie, cheat and steal to make this movie..including distracting his writer so he can't leave the ship. Most of the movie follows their voyage to the island and their strange adventures there. It's a bit creepy on the island with the natives...anyway Anne is captured and offered as a sacrifice to King Kong. He runs off with her and everyone follows to save her. They find dinosaurs, giant bats, and very huge disgusting bugs along the way. Through the movie you see how Anne was afraid of King Kong and then feels compassion for him as a wild animal being tormented for money. There is also a romance thrown in between Anne and the director, played by Adrien Brody. In the end Kong is taken to New York, although they don't show how he fits on the ship. Once there he is sad and we see his connection to Anne again as she goes to him once he breaks loose. The movie has great scenery and special effects. The island is great and it all looks so real. There's even a fight between King Kong and a T-Rex. The first part of the movie is good, but I felt it was too long. It just seemed to go on and on. It was good, but too long to watch more than once.

I saw the movie ‘King Kong’ two months ago on TV. This movie is visually spectacular and emotionally resonant. Many horrible scenes are there in the movie, pls watch it.
