One of the Best Remakes Ever.
epic
awsome
A bit lengthy in my taste, however a very good interesting film that has interesting characters with a nice plot and wonderful special effects, casted very well, succeeds in pure entertainment alone.
The story is time less , and the special FX are seemless , everything looked soooo real, a tad bit drawn out in the begining but I sat through it and walked out misty eyed…….
I don’t know where all these “the FX are timeless” and “it’s one of the best remakes ever” are coming from because the film is nothing like that.
This film was one of the most hyped and looked forward to films of all the times. When the first trailer came out it looked terrific. Could Peter Jackson repeat LOTR? In short, no.
It’s too long, over emotional and just takes bits and pieces from the other two films and sticks them in. Kong acted like a real gorilla, he just didn’t look real. The film is overlit and has too many characters for us to try and care about. I have absolutely no idea what Billy Elliot is doing in this film.
Peter Jackson believed his own hype. Steven Spielberg would have done the big guy proud instead.
Don’t even get me started on this trash. What an insult to movie goers. This is sheer eye candy and nothing else; totally devoid any real substance or logic. Fucking vampires? Get the fuck out of my face, Peter Jackson. You have lost your film making credibility.
Great movie.
This is the best remake I’ve ever seen. Damn this movie is awesome!
Amazing film, 3 hours flyby when you watch it and the CGI effects look amazing, Kong looks real! The person who plays King Kong also does a tremendous job and the ending is very sad. THere is lots of adventure and action and everything you could want in a film! Highly reccomend a near on perfect remake!
The start/1st hour of this movie was totaly dry. I will give this movie this…after the first hour this movie was awsome! Its a great remake and to tell u the truth i accualy cryed @ the end of this movie. Great Job!
A great remake of a classic, some say it was too long but I personally enjoyed every minute of it.
What do you get when you cross Raiders Of The Lost Ark, Jurrasic Park and Titanic ? One of the most boring, overlong and pointless movies ever made. This is a pure CGI fest with no heart and soul whatsoever. By the time the action revs up nearly an hour has past and then time is wasted as Kong battles dinosaurs! After the triumph of his LOTR trilogy, Peter Jackson created a disaster. By the time Kong falls from the Empire State building, you’ll no longer care. Stick to the original.
Jesus Christ, Jackson. What were you thinking.
“Alright, you know that iconic movie, ‘King Kong?’ The one with a classic story, stunning effects, and an amazing musical score that make it one of the best and most memorable movies ever made? Well, get this. We’ll overload it with generic CGI. And I mean really flashy stuff, more like Terminator than the jaw-dropping realism of ‘Jurassic Park.’ Oh, and you know those really iconic scenes that the movie is remembered for, like the T-Rex battle and the finale at the Empire State Building? Well, let’s drag each of these out and add so much shit to them that the audience just gets bored. And the love story? Let’s make it so overly romantic and sexualized that it just becomes laughable, and beat the audience over the head with it again and again. All I need is a huge budget and a cast of vastly overrated actors and actresses. Alright, who’s ready to murder a staple of cinema history?”
The 70′s remake was bad, but at least somewhat entertaining. This? This was just an abomination. Save an extra two hours of your life and watch the original 1933 version. It may be the best movie ever. This one should just never have been made.
this is an amazing science fiction movie!!!! but this is not a science fiction site….
A good film but definetley not a horror movie. it’s Jaws all over again. Jaws and Jurassic Park and This film ARE MONSTER MOVIES!!!! THEY ARE NOT FECK ARSE SCARY!!! THEY ARE GOOD BUT I DON’T SHIT MYSELF AT THEM!!!!
Awesome movies. Dont know whats with all the haters, I dont see how you could not enjoy this film.
This isn`t a horror movie,but is a damn good remake with superb visuals efects and some great creatures.
A great movie, but not scary. I don’t feel that this movie is horror, more of a Action/Drama/Fantasy kinda movie. But still good.
dino de laurentis could learn some lessons.
Very Underrated
I have o say this is a perfect Remake/Reboot for it kind & has unbelievable CGI special effects, with a well acted superstar cast & brilliant director at hand this movie is an Epic/Masterpieces for our times.
The Movie would be fighting for children, but it isn’t as scary as you would think, don’t get me wrong it has its moments while Kong is still the biggest & angry King Kong around, but in this movie is show a more sweeter side to King Kong in a emotionally depth.
The Movie is an absolutely classic, it was long & an enjoyable movie to watch & the ending was soo down with the love & emotions (also the fucking huge bugs in the film creep me out alot soo that was more scary for me & I would give it a 4 skulls/8 out of 10 but it wasn’t scary either).
great
pretty good, nothing like the original though
THE best monster movie EVER made PERIOD!!!! Entertainment to the Nth degree!!!! This has some of that bad juju that only a seasoned film-maker like Peter Jackson can create. The ship-ride to Skull Island does the old salty sailor talkin’ about sharks in “Jaws” one better. Where in the HELL did Jackson find those natives? They look pretty authentic. King Kong himself is the pièce de résistance.
Lots and lots of action that I won’t spoil for you. SEE it!!!
Simply perfect. I saw it when it first came out as a kid and it never losses it’s excitement.
Very enjoyable film, much of the footage on skull island is simply epic.
meh.
Brilliant remake of the classic monster movie. Fuck the haters.
Another movie that has nothing to do here. I have fear that one of these days I find Titanic here.
This movie is really stupid and pointless, dinosaurs, prehistoric creatures acting in a manner stupid and suicidal, a story full of crap and low punches. This remake does not make sense at all.
A great remake, that really brings you into another world with it’s photorealistic effects and big imagination.
Amazing remake.
