It was boring
I hated the movie. It was full of crap and nothing in it was good
Brilliant!! My expectations have been surpassed. I just have to say that it is a truly beautiful film and Peter Jackson is a genius. This film is a true masterpiece.
such a great movie.. very long though... should have put more time in towards the ending. kind of ended all so quickly, but grea movie!
this movie was awesome! alot of action! the actors were all really good. naomi watts and adrien brody had great chemistry. it had really awesome graphics 2! u couldn`t tell it was computer animated
I guess Jackson has the right to make his monkey movie version of King Kong as he sees fit. No one can sue; they`re all dead, including Canada`s own Fay Wray. The Oscar for this version should go to Andy Serkis for his portrayal of the big ape. A long but enjoyable movie, even if us older ones know the storyline outcome.
Best Fight Scene i`ve seen ever
It was a great movie...some may say that it was too long, but I personally didn`t notice the time passing. If any part was cut out, the movie wouldn`t have developed as nicely as it did, and the characters wouldn`t have developed as well either. Overall, it was definitely worth it.
this movie was to phoney for all the hype major disaapointment
I can honestly say this is the best movie I have ever seen.
This movie is as good as it gets. (GREAT)
Kudos to Peter Jackson for taking the time to honour the original in a beautifully realized re-make. Thought Naomi Watts handled her role very well, and Jack Black was a pleasant surpise. Overall, a very good escapism-type movie, made in the tradition of an epic.
Impressive effort. Aside from the very long running dinosaur scene, this movie was perfect. Was easy to forget about the computer animation due to Andy Serkis acting as Kong and the detail eg when Kong forces his way out of an alley and scratches the concrete walls. Was actually really believable.
the movie was awsome and i fell in love with king kong
Very entertaining and visually spectacular. They should have redone the first dinosaur scene though as it looked extremely fake.
I have to admit this was a good movie. But it was sooo long. ALot of parts in the movie were to long like Kong running through the jungle and him getting shot by planes. This movie Ruined Christmass !!! Why God WHY!!!!! 3 stars
It was horrible. You didn`t get to see King Kong until 1 hour after it started.
"WOW", this movie has got to be one of the best movies iv ever seen. This movie is filled with action, adventure, and romance some what. I saw this with my friends and im 14, at the end it was so sad, but i didnt want to sow how it was so sad but my eyes were all watery. This movie better win awards glore. 10 out of 10. King Kong looks so life like, same with all of the other creatures and other things. It is also funny at times. And if people say its unrealistic, with Ann getting well anyways i wont say anything but UNREALISTIC, what the hell this is a movie about a 25 foot gorilla and dinasors COME ON! If your going to see anything this yea
GREAT Movie, a bit too long, but consider it earned.
i think it was a really good movie!!it touched me at the end,it was really sad aswell
And for the person complaining that this was the worst movie they`ve ever seen and they can`t get their $10.00 back... don`t even take the chance to see a movie then. There is never a guarantee that you`re going to like a movie. And if you`re so bothered about $10.00 then come here you poor whiny baby and I`ll give you some money. Do you want me to reimburse your gas money that you used to drive there? Or do you want me to give you your three hours back? Life is full of disappointments. GET OVER IT. Or wait until it comes out on DVD and rent it so then you`d only be wasting $5.00.
It was a great movie. Don`t say things like "it took a little long to get to the point" because you needed a detailed beginning. A pretty girl can`t just jump on an old boat and go to the island. I thought it was fantastic that we saw the lives of these people a little before hand. Got to know them a little more. Excellent casting, excellent graphics... I`m just surprised Ann Darrow didn`t die of whiplash or something. Haha.. Good times.
it was a great movie, the action was very fast paced kong was very realistic, i had to hide my head in some places . IT WAS GREAT.
KING KONG IS REALLY FASCINATING. I SHOULD THANK PETER JACKSON FOR DOING LIKE THIS TYPE OF MOVIE.KING KONG 2005 IS MORE BETTER THEN THE 1933 KING KONG MOVIE.I HOPE THERE WILL BE ANOTHER ONE MORE KING KONG MOVIE.I HEARD KING KONG WILL BE FACING WITH A ROBOT KONG IN THE NEXT MOVIE.
The beginning was a bit slow, but at the same time it allowed you to see the depth of each character. Overall though, it has to be one of the best movies I`ve seen in a long time. The relationship that developed between Anne and King Kong was absolutly moving. Ladies, it`s a definit tear jerker so bring lots of Kleenex.
Peter Jackson has created a wonderfull tribute to Merian C. Cooper. I enjoyed the film very much and I will purchase the 2005 king kong dvd as well as the 1933 king kong dvd
Good, but way too long. It was an entire hour before we got our first glimpse of Kong.
When I first heard there`s was going to be a King Kong remake I was excited. Then I saw the trailer, and wasn`t so sure. But then the movie got SO much hype so I figured I`d give it a try. Well, what a let down. I should have stuck with my gut after seeing the cheesy trailer. Word to the wise: never listen to critics if the trailer doesn`t do it for you. I`ll give it 3 stars since there were some good parts (the non-action parts were well done), but boy did it drag. Especially the endless chases, etc.
I think this movie was over rated.
Best Movie of the Year! King Kong, Naomi Watts and Jack Black are fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great movie, the special effects, acting, everything was just fantastic.
Far too long, first hour was a sheer waste, it took that long to meet Kong. I guess Peter Jackson can`t make a movie less than three hours. Cinematography is good and enjoyable, especially the island scenes. However at times, felt like I was watching a poor imitation of Jurasic Park, especially dinosuars scenes. Naomi Watts carries the film well. Adrian Brody`s character is underdeveloped. Overall disappointed, wondering what was all that hype about.
this is the best movie!!!!!
Great movie. True to the genre. Very enjoyable, a thrilling ride.
King Kong is a really good movie. It was sooo sad at the end though, but it`s still all good.
I hated the movie, anyone with a brain will be bored silly. The movie consisted of phony animals grunting and fighting and chasing people through the forest. Acting consisted of looking terrified. Dialogue was minimal. Boring, boring, boring.
I must say all the hype that I’ve been hearing about this movie is all very true. Peter Jackson has created yet another Oscar worthy movie. The special effects, animation, character development and love between Kong and Ann is by far the best I have ever seen. The scenery in this movie looks absolutely unbelievable; I couldn’t tell the difference between fake and real. Also, the creatures that appear in the movie are life like and frightening, including the most important character “Kong”. Although this movie was 3 hours long I must admit I never noticed it. The build up to Kong was phenomenal and I slowly began to fall in love with the ape a
Disappointing, another story about humans abuse against animals. Extremely depressing. Dont waste the money. NO Stars.
As well as a remake can be redone. No question - action packed - but the acting was so-so.
wow wow wow it took a little long to get to the point but this movie is the best. it will for sure recieve an acadamy award.
All I can say is WOW!!!!
The movie was great...but WHAT was Peter Jackson thinking when he put Jack Black in it? The guy is the worst actor and he ruined what I believe is a great film. Peter Jackson..how could you make such a bad casting decision?
love it it was the best movie this year together with harry potter amazing special effects , it was funny and sad it was great
Incredible. A really emotional movie. There is definitely alot of symbolism in it, Im not sure, but it feels like it. Who the heck wrote this story? One of the best movies I`ve ever seen.
king kong is my friend. i love him.
wow, fell in love with Naomi watts
i hated it it was corny,disrespectful and full of crap!
KING KONG definately 10 steps ahead of Jurassic Park. Steven Speilberg definately has competition. Peter Jackson comes with another spectacular movie after lord of the rings.Peeps can miss this movie out, A MUST SEE !!!!!
WOW. People told me this was an amazing movie and when I saw it I was amazed at how right they were. It started slow and I`m not into that slow stuff but when they got on the island... that`s when everything began. The special effects are amazing and the action scenes keep you right on the tip of your seat. 5 stars for this tremendously entertaining movie.
best movie ever made. Period!!!!! No Question about it!!!!
