One Sentence: King Kong wants his dolly!!!!
2 weeks late, but I come with King Kong finally, and I have to say that it is defantly a movie. A long one at that. With a gaint gorilla, and dinosaurs, and giant wormy bugs. I am slightly lost with this one. I am not sure if this was a good movie. I am not really sure of anything. It was cool. It was beautiful, it was very well put together. But there wasn't anything to it. I was looking for a story around people and thier lives, and King Kong in that life, and that isn't what I got at all, I got a mostly adventure picutre, that did that very very well. I was stressed out in the whole movie, it was relentless, with fights, and chases, and scaryness, and near death and all that good stuff, edge of your seat type stuff, which was quite good. What is this movie supposed to be? Action/Adventure? Comedy? Life story? Moral message? I think I am too hung up on expecting one thing and getting something else, that I am still confused about just what I was watching. The human story of Lord of the Rings was so real. Every part of the Trilogy was about man, and elves, and dwarves, and thier lives, and the sacrifice, and the fight for thier way of life, that this movie is such a step in another direction. I got the message, but I just wasn't interested in it, I think I was looking for something else, and I just didn't get what I wanted out of the movie, if I had gone into it, expecting a mostly action film with a small message, I might have liked it a bit more than I did. That is what it is, an expensive action movie, and not one that I would buy on DVD, or go see again in the theater. I am not saying do not go see it, becuse it is good, but do not expect another Rings, becuase it is not that story, and it is not that type of story. Overall I would say it was very cool, well done, but just an action movie, and not an amazing movie that is gonna blow you away. And I would keep the younger ones away from this, it is quite violent.
