Tell ya what, sadlycrust, if you think that's true you go ahead and make millions off of your very own flipbook King Kong movie. Look:  Gee, I could've drawn that tooth so much better...

Just saw it again. I'd like to have my previous complaints stricken from the record. I had absolutely none this time. Don't know what I was talking about when I said the beginning was bad... it seemed good to me this time. Also, the teeth were indeed fantastic. I thought they looked more like gigantic cones of yellow, rotting enamel than stickmen.  | PerryKroll.com | TRC | "If not actually disgruntled, he was far from being gruntled." Wodehouse

Yeah, I was bothered by that shot as well. First of all, it just looked weird, and secondly, I'm pretty sure her spine would have broken. | PerryKroll.com | TRC | "If not actually disgruntled, he was far from being gruntled." Wodehouse

The beauty killed the beast thing? I just took it that he died trying to save Anne, aka "The Beauty." I may be wrong though, so don't quote me on it.

I normally stay in a cinema to watch all the credits of any good films that i watch. It is my means of a silent tribute to those who worked on the film. However for king kong, as stunning as the new epic is, after the credit of Andrew Lesnie, exhaused by one of the slowest cuts i have seen in many a film, i walked out.
It seemed to me that with jacksons success with LOTR, Universal decided to gave him free reign with Kong. And although he delivers sequence after sequence of brilliant CG work and beautiful cinematography, the 3 1/2 hour epic is let down by a sheer lack of momentum, that is only barely made up for through development of great, multi dimentional characters(including Kong himself).
Whilst outstripping any of the previous attempts at the film i feel that leaving a bit more on the cutting room floor could have made for a truely great film that communicated Jacksons vision and narrative much more convincingly.
I as much as i am bagging it, if you are willing to sit through an epic i recomend you guys see it, far as an overall film goes I rate it somewhere between 3 1/2 and 4 stars.
I wish cinemas were fitted out with chairs that suited the epic genre a bit better.
I know this is an old post, but if it was difficult for you to sit through a 3 1/2 hour peter Jackson movie, INLAND EMPIRE's gonna' kill you. |
