HOLY ****.
THIS MOVIE IS AMAZING.
I just got back from seeing it, and I really can't think of where to start talking about all the cool stuff. It takes a while to get going (they spend about an hour developing the characters) but once they reach Skull Island, holy **** there's never a dull moment.
The CGI during some scenes looked a bit fake, mainly during the dino stampede. Apart from that, it was pretty amazing, ESPECIALLY Kong, who looks incredible. The fact that they could make me get misty eyed over a CGI created ape speaks for how realistic he was.
It's a loooong movie, being over 3 hours, but somehow Narnia felt a lot longer than this even though it was an hour shorter. Must have been because of all the action scenes. But yeah, I loved this movie. Best one I've seen in a long time.
Also, Jack Black was surprisingly good in the movie, even if I did keep imagining him breaking out into random Tenacious D songs.
Oh yeah. A TON of references to the old one - having just watched it on TV a few days ago, it made me smile to see all the little nods they made.

 If I had two words to discribe this movie they would be Holy. and ****. The movie is so kickass it's...kickasskickass. This is probably if not the best, one of the best movies of 2005. It was the perfect way to end 2005. A year full of generaly lame movies. The action, the romance, the comedy. It has it all. Peter Jackson continues to be unchallenged. Is there any movie he can't make? The movie IS long, yes, very long. (Over 3 hours) And you will notice it. But in the end, it's all worth it. Adrien Brody's facial expressions are priceless and he is a very unlikely action hero. Amazingly, he pulls it off well. Naomi Watts is one of my new favorite actresses. She makes you actually believe that she IS in love with Kong. She is better then Fay West. Jack Black doesn't really fit the part at first but as his character develops you can see why he was choosen for the role. And finally King Kong himself, he's never been better. He now actually acts like a Ape and walks on all fours. His personality and emotions are as strong as ever. Kudos for that Jackson. The story is sooo much better then both 30's and 70's versions. The whole thing was just written to have a lot more sense. And Skull Island you can now see why it is called Skull Island. This is an action movie, there is no doubt about it. There are so many actions scenes that after a while it just kind of gets to the point of, yeah right. They could have cut a few of those. The creatures of Skull Island are as scary as ever. Especially those Leeches. Holy **** those were scary. The only thing I can complain about in this movie is the music, it was just nothing special. But hey, you don't go to an action flick to hear music right? I also wish they would have shown how they got home with Kong. Anyway great action scenes, in fact these are the best I've seen in my life. They're that good. 10/10 No doubt about it. | QUOTE | | Carl Denham: Herb, get the camera. |
