  King Kong (2005)

Jackson will bring his sweeping cinematic vision to the iconic story of the gigantic ape-monster captured in the wilds and brought to civilization where he meets his tragic fate. The screenplay by Jackson, Walsh and Boyens is based on the original story by Merian C. Cooper and Edgar Wallace, which became the classic 1933 RKO Radio Pictures film, directed by adventurers Cooper and Ernest B. Schoesdack. Jackson will employ the latest motion picture technology to cinematically portray the timeless tale of the beast and his beauty. He will expand on the chapters of the tale that take place in the mysterious and dangerous jungles of Skull Island, and his Kong promises to be a unique and breathtaking creation. (read more)

King Kong Movie Review by Zara (12/14/2008)

This was a good version of KING KONG, heavily borrowed from the original version but with a good amount of tongue in cheek by director Peter Jackson. If there's anything that I can admire about Jackson, it's that he's practically OCD and Asperger's rolled into one when it comes to delivering a project that is 100%...

King Kong Movie Review by Tony (6/10/2006)

The film is set in 1933, with overly ambitious, sleazy director Carl Denham (Jack Black), who runs into the depression laden young and beautiful actress Ann Darrow (Naomi Watts) from the world of vaudeville. He offers her a part in his latest flick, and her being down on her luck and the chance to work with writer Jack...

King Kong Movie Review by Max (4/15/2006)

The brilliant mind that brought us the famous "Lord of The Rings," Peter Jackson, not only looks better than he did while directing those pictures, but also gives us an even better epic. That is, at roughly the same length. Through various interviews and behind the scenes work on "Kong," Jackson explains he's been...

King Kong Movie Review by AJ (4/13/2006)

Passion projects are beasts of a fickle variety. When done right, they're beautifully affecting; for example, Mel Gibson's Passion of the Christ was a moving testament to his faith, and this year's Serenity found Joss Whedon finally relighting the Firefly inhabitants he clearly loved so very much, far too much to let go....

King Kong Movie Review by Matthew (12/19/2005)

This Beast is a Beauty. Warts and all.

Not often enough, a film overflows with the director's enthusiasm and glee, jam-packed with action sequences, outstanding special effects, good and bad dialogue and acting, everything, good and bad, is just completely over the top. When I see a film like this, I can tell the...
