It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

From the first shot until the infamous epic end over the Empire State building, 2005's King Kong is a tremendously powerful epic led by the genius mind of Peter Jackson. The cast is awesome ,even Jack Black. The visul effects are beyond incredible ,Kong is terrifying ,funny, exciting and powerful. The insect pit is something i remember since I'm a kid. However the only 2 flaws in this movie are the lengthy runtime of 187 minutes and the pacing. But yeah the movie is a masterpiece.

I saw this remake in 2006 in England & it pays homage by tipping it's hat to the 1933 original even recreating some of the scenes of the original. Such as the natives ritual dance & it's entertaining but the film is overloaded with too much modern embellishments & overdone & overblown special effects which are unnecessary & stupid . I wish modern hollywood would just leave the golden age alone & stop remaking the classics. Once it's been done it's been done so turn the page. How can you top the 1933 original ? The original was a huge enormous box office smash in 1933 & talkies were still new & the horror monster movies were a new experience for audiences. They had never seen anything like it before. The great depression really triggered & inspired hollywood filmmakers. At a time when movies were at their most creative & innovative & groundbreaking. The original is still the enduring classic that I can always watch & comeback to. But this remake is good to see one time & then you forget it & it'll never be a classic & stand up to the 1933 original. When I saw this remake it only made me want to see the original again so it helps & keeps the original a memorable classic. The original is the only one you need to see it'll never be surpassed.

The Kong stuff is convincing thanks to some excellently emotive motion-capture work and there are a number of stand-out sequences that are genuinely entertaining and well crafted to boot, but unfortunately this three-hour piece is so poorly paced and disjointed that it not only feels like three separate movies but also becomes bizarrely boring even during some of the supposedly more exciting scenes. The dialogue is also decidedly clunky at times and the green-screen work is so inconsistent that it sometimes seems as though the actors are still standing in that emerald room and staring blankly at a wall despite the spectacle around them. Ultimately, the relatively impressive visuals can't stop the fairly silly and sadly monotonous story from wearing thin. In the end, it was pacing that killed the beast. 5/10

I don't like the end of the movie why should kill the Kong in the end
