I think King Kong should win Best Actor this year at the Oscars - it is unbelievable how the special effects were so real. I never for one second even though that this giant ape was generated with computer technology - those eyes are real! The beginning I admit was a bit slow but it was good for character development. I loved it! GO SEE IT NOW!!!!! (bring tissues)
it was a good movie!
it`s a oooossssssssssaaaaaaaaaaaaammmmmmmmmmmm movie. good special effect and when u see it u don`t feel it they add special effects.i love it don`t miss this movie guys....
This move is just amazing!!! Best than everything what I saw for a many years! This kind of movies is very rare – I almost decided not to go to the theater again (after watching Syriana, Harry Potter, Flightplan, Mask of Zorro…). This is masterpiece together with “Titanic”, “Notebook”, “Out of Africa”, “Cliffhanger”, “Godfather”… Thanks Peter Jackson for giving us the opportunity to enjoy such a wonderful movie!!!
This movie is amazing! the graphics are great...GO see it!
Great movie!! WORTH DA MONEY!!:)
I personaly think this movie was an amazing, spectacular, and miraculas use of $7.00. I`ll admit it was bit too long but Peter Jackson directed the Lord of thr Rings (and we all know about those movies)so you`d expect it. If you`re wondering about Jack Black`s performance he wasn`t really funny in my oppinion in any other movie so nobody should of expected him to be funny in this one. I advise he stay in actions and drama`s. I read that somepeople said it was slow at the begining but if you have A.D.D then I could understand, seriously I didn`t find any slow part of the film. I mostly saw people after the movie in tears especialy my father, s
How can you wreck a movie if it`s absolutely true to the original?! This movie is mind-blowing! It deserves nothing less than 5stars. The people who actually give this a 1-star rating is lying not only to all other movie goers, but to themselves. Maybe they just don`t get movies...Anyway, GO SEE THIS MOVIE! You won`t be dissapointed!
Worth the money to watch! The whole story has to be told so it`s gonna take a bit of your time (3 hrs)
I thought this movie was a waste of time. At times i thought i was watching Juarsic Park, but not nearly as good. Way to long.
Best Movie ever!!!!!!!!
I know it`s fiction but come on...humans running and keeping up with dinosaurs especially fat jack, the search party actually finding the girl on that huge island, fat chance. etc, etc. Unbelievable
King Kong was amazing!!!
If you don`t like this movie, you simply don`t like movies at all. It`s one of the best ever. No argument.
This movie was amazing!!! This is the best movie that I have seen all year and for awhile in fact. The movie is 3 hours but the story is soooo beautiful that u don`t even notice the extra hour. I LOVED THIS MOVIE!!!! Your crazy if you say anything negative about this movie. 5 Shinning Stars
it is a touching movie, the picture was made gorgeous
theres 1 problem really......its too good! take it down a notch! kidding... ya its too good people are almost fighting to get seats .... and thats the problem
Unfortunately, Kong just wasn`t very engaging. The setting, the action, the visuals, the score, all were very good, but the characters really didn`t come to life on the screen. Rather flat and one dimensional. Emotionally, it didn`t fufill the potential that this story had. All together it didn`t end up being entertaining. Not a bad movie, just not very good.
Great movie!!! Sad at the end, made me cry
I honestly liked the first hour, the rest was long and boring. The romance and some lines were completely cheesy.
Slow at the start for about a 1/2 hour but after that when Kong appeared it was a very good film and had its funny moments. Its a must see movie on the big screen....
King Kong rules! Honestly, I`ve never been a fan the older version or any buzz it created after. But this movie changed my mind. It`s a perfect blend of great acting, adventurous plot and STUNNING CG effects. Don`t drink anything before and during the movie because you may miss the hilarious and touching scenes. Remember Peter Jackson has a knack for making 3hr movies and great ones too.
I loved this movie. I typically don`t like long movies but i was absolutely entertained the entire way through. Fabulous, classy, visually stunning and beautifully acted and put together! If you can handle three and a half hours without using the washroom, see it. its amazing -jen
`KING KONG` was the BEST!!!! The movie was long, but it needed to be that long to enhance the story. Rushing it or cutting it down would have been wrong, and would have hurt the story line. The acting was fantastic! Naomi and Andre were great together and KONG was so realistic and sad that it really did make you feel sorry for a giant gorilla. A MUST SEE FOR THIS YEAR!!!
three movies in one. Titanic, Jurasic park, Kong.
I think this movie is way too long....
It was a good movie and the special effects were great. The only downfall was that it was a little too long. They could of cut it down to 2 hours.
Amazing movie. I actually think this was the best movie i`ve ever seen. It had incredible acting from everyone involved and it had every kind of genre of movie involved in it. Comedy, Drama, Romance, Action and suspense all bundled up into one movie. Peter Jackson nailed it on this one.
The movie is beutifully done, don`t drink beer during it though - it 3 hours long. But once it finishes you don`t have that sence of something missing like with those 85 minute movies.
This movie ROCKS.. KONG!! KONG!! KONG!! KONG!! KONG!! KONG!!
Totaly amazing. The special effects are mind blowing.
Wonderful movie!!! The best my son and I have seen all year!!!!
This is probably one of the best movies ever made EVER. King Kong is a movie masterpiece. Best movie of the year by far, and Peter Jackson has just secured his throne as the best hollywood director. This movie is better than all of the Jurassic Parks combined all in one movie!!!! The only problem with it is that it takes a bit too long for Kong to get on the set,, but once he`s there it`s non stop amazing eye action!! Jack Black was a bad selection for his role, I dunno if he was trying to be funny or serious and just did terribly but other than that phenomenal ten stars!!!!
Absolutely amazing!! The Special Effects are the best I have ever seen. The action sequences were awesome. The acting wasn`t that bad either. OK .. yes it was a bit draggy in spots, but no worse than most films out there. Totally a 5 out of 5.
It took long enough. But a great director has at long last done this story the justice it has long deserved. *BRAVO* Full marks on all points possible. I am off to see it again tomorrow.
Some of you just dont know what a movie is apparently...I don`t understand how you people say that you fell asleep during one of the most action-packed and intense movies this year...totally not boring-the best 10 dollars i`ve spent...maybe you should check out pride and prejudice i heard that will blow you away
what a wast of my time. I have more fun using my toilet. who came up with this king kong crap. what a wast of money and effects. Maybe they should work on remaking E.T since they like distroying classic movies. why peter jackson why!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I thought the movie was excellent. The beginning was a little slow, but once they got to the Island it was all made up for. The movie didn`t even feel like it was 3 hours, could have sat there for another hour, it was just amamzing. I loved the story, it was the best movie of the year, infact it even beat out Stars Wars episode III for me, and that was my favorite movie this year until now. I loved the fact that there was such a stong connection between Kong and Ann, it was very moving. I don`t easily cry in movies and I had to stop myself from bawling at the end, it defeintly touches your heart and I was not expecting it to be that sad.
Very entertaining. Overall a good movie, but it could have been edited. The story of Kong does not need to be 3 hours. 2-2 and a half hours and it would`ve been flawless.
harry potter and the goblet of fire was a lot better!...
OMG i cried
Very disappointing Movie. I think it is a waste of money to see this one.
a work of art a perfect blend of emotion and action
cheesy? did you not notice the style that they went with? it was very cinematic. back in the day, nothing was cheesy, think about that.
i`m just speechless at how Brilliant it was. The beginning was a bit slow, but boy did it pick up in the middle right through to the end. Incredibly sad and dramatic at certain parts. Example, when Kong and Anne are sitting high just enjoying each others company and the scenery. It made you feel like you were there. Man, one of the most dramatic endings I`ve ever seen. I can`t get it out of my head. And don`t get me started on the action. I recommend this movie to EVERYONE!
This was one of the best movies I have ever seen! I thought they did a very good job with the relationship between Ann and Kong and the special effects were incredible! It was definetly worth sitting for three hours and I`ll watch it again anytime! 5 STARS
Good movie......just too long.....should have cut out some parts of the movie to shorten it. Still all in all a good movie!
I still cant get over how amazing this movie was! Peter Jackson is a genius! Full of action and spectacular special effects. The acting was great as was the music and sound. This is without a doubt the best movie of the year! SIMPLY BRILLIANT!
great special effect
A great movie, very entertaining!
