Being a Peter Jackson film I had great expectations about King Kong and all the reviews I came across only sought to increase my anticipation. I have to say I was not disappointed.
It starts off a little slow with probably a little too much background which is probably my only criticism of this movie.
The creatures are brilliant, the action is breathtaking. It's scary. It's funny and it's ultimately heartbreaking.
Naomi Watts is luminescently beautiful and stole every scene she was in. And as for Kong.... I just love Andy Sirkis anyway and he made him come to life in the same way as he gave Gollum his own personality and je ne c'est quoi. Jack Black also deserves a mention for playing the nasty man in his own inimitable way!
This is a classic remake of a classic film and everyone should see it. Small kids will probably be scared but it's a good type of scary!
