King Kong

King Kong: Peter Jackson remakes this classic tale, we all know the story of Kong….but we have never SEEN it done like this. The movie’s run time is 3 hours, with the 1st hour dedicated to character development and the last 2 hours showing pure cinema delight. When the movie crew arrives at Skull Island you already know you are in for a treat. The visuals of the island and Islanders are awesome, creepy, and even scary. From the time Kong grabs Ann (played by Naomi Watts) the action is none stop. We see everything from Kong fighting dinosaurs and bats to the film crew taking on prehistoric insects and bugs. Later Kong takes on 1933 Manhattan, biplanes, and the empire state building. The film does everything right – gives us interesting characters, a ton of action, and wraps it all around a great story. Kong looked fantastic, which is the key to drawing in our emotion to the story. Peter Jackson proved he is at the top of his game and the rest of the industry is looking up. This is an Event film that truly should be seen at the theaters. // Side note, for all those of you who feel movies are too expensive……Paying $8-9 to see this movie is really a bargain. Enjoy!
