I know some of you guys really dislike the whole remaking thing, especially with classics like King Kong; but I have this to say to you: King Kong is a huge exception to the rule. This movie, in my opinion, is the best movie to come out in a long time.
The last movie to shake me like this was The Passion of the Christ and before that, Saving Private Ryan. This movie is one of the very few movies that makes you "Cry, laugh, eww, and ahh". The writing is superb, the acting is awesome (even Kong should be nominated for an award), the action is above exhilerating, the special effects are so realistic (Kong looks just like an 20 foot ape), and the soundtrack is amazing.
This film is one of those 3 hour films you don\'t mind sitting three hours for. So, in conclusion, go see King Kong if you are a fan of movies in general and don\'t worry, there are horrifying moments (centinpeds and old tribal women). Also, keep a look out for a little something from Dead Alive aka Braindead. Gets 5 Great Apes out of 5.
