Customer Reviews of King Kong (Three-Disc Deluxe Extended Edition)
Too long...needs editing I'm not going to critisize the plot of the film because it ultimately adheres quite closely to the original 1933 Merian C. Cooper version of the film. However this film is 187min long and in order to fill this extra time it digresses into silly nonsense for large portions of the film. A problem I had was that while watching it I was constantly being reminded of other films like `Jurassic Park' (Dinosaurs share characteristics) `Apocalypse Now' (one person is reading Heart of Darkness) `Lord Of The Rings' (Villagers mannerisms are similar to Gollum) and `Titanic' to name a few. Another problem I have is with the cinematography, which is just too colourful for my palette. Of courses there is an unnecessary excess of CGI in this film. There was a time when special affects were used in films to create the illusion of reality now special affects seem to be used to make things seem unreal. We can easily sit now and point out what is CGI and what is not and besides some of it is so appallingly bad it's hard to miss, the dinosaur stampede especially. As for the attempt to develop a relationship between Ann Darrow and the 25 ft ape, it is completely laughable. <

>I had high hopes for the Lord Of The Rings trilogy and was disappointed so I wasn't really expecting much here. For me Peter Jackson's best two films will always be `Bad Taste' (1989) and `Brain Dead' (1992). I prefer the original King Kong over this boring nonsense any day. <

Remake does Credit Original
If you liked the original, then this movie is on par. It is way too long though, at 3.5+ hours you can become quite restless once they leave the Island. I personally love the movie because they took the original and improved upon it in every mannor possible. Plus, with today's graphical abilities it is a spectacular looking film. A movie buff must!
