Simply amazing. One of the best movies I've seen. As a big fan of the original I was a little nervous about this movie. (the '76 film still causes pain) But Jackson and crew pulled it off wonderfully.

Thought the first hour of the film set the scene nicely. I hate it when films rush in and start the action without setting some sort of background to the characters. Andy Serkis should be given an Oscar for his Kong role, I dont care if its CGI all the expression and movement and empathy we get for Kong comes from his performance.

i loved this movie, but i felt that some parts were drawl out way to long, it took her like 5 minutes to just put one foot on the boat, then the bug fighting scene was just over kill. but all in all it was good. pretty sad too if you ask me.

LOL I´m not sure it´s as much Jack Black´s fault as it is the line itself. It´s a HORRIBLE last line, that is more fitting in a bad overacted theater play than in a b-movie. And speaking of overacting, I actually thought Watts was too much. You say that Black had only 3 different facial expressions. Well, i say that Watts was nothing BUT facial expressions. When she started with that "Beau-ti-ful" shit, i felt the urge to puke... My favorite moment in this movie was the meeting with the cannibals. Damn, they were well made and scary as hell. I wished the story could just be about the crew trying to survive the cannibals, and then to hell with King Kong.:D

Overall I thought this film was great.
Cons: 1) Didn't like Jack Black, all of his lines were very Jack Blackish, something that he would say. Like when he kept saying that he would finsh the film for the people that died. 2) CGI sucked except for Kong, big surprise, I mean yeah Kong is going to look good b/c he's the focus of the film, but the dinos and the bugs looked very animated. I didn't really care for the over exagerated teeth on the T-Rex like and the Raptor like predators (I say "like" b/c I used to be into dinos hardcore when I was little so I noticed a few things about the dinos that made them not true dinos). 3) I think that the musice during the bug scene could have been better. Maybe like a crawling sound that you get from string instruments played at high notes really fast. Otherwise the score was awsome! Pros: 1) Really liked the first part of the movie, really set the tone for teh rest of the film. I really liked how they showed the depression, and actually showed what it was like then b/c most movies set during the depression don't really show the bad side and then most people have this image that during the depression everything was bad, but as we saw in Kong, not everyone had it bad, some were rich and some were gutter poor. 2) Really felt that they made Kong a character in the film and not just the moster that everyone is routing for. Like when they were trying to capture Kong that was a preety emotional scene and it was magnifed by the girl's acting as well. Great movie, will probably buy it on DVD.

I went to see it and didn't know it was that long and we didn't get a pause so everyone was glad the movie ended, but it was worth to see it on a big screen, thou I don't think the movie was worth the title: horror it's more like a thriller or fantasy, it's one of the best movies I ever seen.

Saw this yesterday. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Loved Kong, loved Adrien Brody, loved Naomi Watts, loved Andy Serkis. I think Peter Jackson could have made a better pick than Jack Black for that role. But then, I'm prejudiced - I've never liked Jack Black.
I liked everything about the movie - the acting, the effects, the emotions it raised (I got a little teary-eyed at the end), just everything!

i didnt mind Jack Black in the roll .. a desperate fast talking hustler is always a part he can do well ..
the only fault i had was the horrible delivery of that last line .. but again - i dont blame him... Jackson must have wanted it that way. Its not like they didnt have the budget to do another take ??!! as far as the dinos went .. they were fucking awsome ... the dino CGI was fantastic. the only time i saw bad CGI was the natives pole vaulting over to the ship ... even then, who gives a fuck .. this movie was a major achievement. it was definately NOT Jackson's 'titanic' as i feared it would be.
