King Kong is the worst movie of all times!

Posted : 1 month, 2 weeks ago at Oct 13 12:09
This movie made me actually want to get up and leave. I have never actually wanted to leave a film out of disgust before. I have hated movies, I have watched really fucking bad movies before, but this was terrible. It took everything I hate about Hollywood movies. It took bad camera angles, bad acting, bad motion cg, bad lighting, took a good budget and a good plot, and completely ruined it. Never have I been so unhappy with a film. Naomi Watts looked and acted just like Nicole Kidmen, that is to say poorly, and Jack Black acted just like Jack Black. The supporting cast wasn't terrible, although they did over and under act accordingly. There was a terrible dinosaur race that didn't make any kind of sense, in that there were about 20 brontosaurus' running from 3 raptors. Only 4 people di...Read more

''The beast looked upon the face of beauty. Beauty stayed his hand, and from that moment he was as one dead.'' In 1933 New York, an overly ambitious movie producer coerces his cast and hired ship crew to travel to mysterious Skull Island, where they encounter Kong, a giant ape who is immediately smitten with leading lady Ann Darrow. Naomi Watts: Ann Darrow If it had been made public that a remake of the 1933 King Kong was being created without Peter Jackson attached to it, there is no shred of doubt that viewers would have been enraged. After the huge success of the Lord of the Rings trilogy, it would seem that the public has rightly learned to put their faith in director Peter Jackson, an affirmed fave director of mine. After watching his version of King Kong at the Cin...Read more

Is this Peter Jackson?

Horrible movie. 3 hours for just action with non sense, no script, no talk, no story. A shame for Peter Jackson.

I didn't care for this movie.

The first part of the movie was SOOO slow, and then later it's too action packed. Just one danger after another after another. They stretched the scenes out too long. Plus, the girl never even said "kong", and only said one word to the ape, yet loves him like a brother. The worst of all was the people just stared like 30 times in the movie! No talking! Just staring with a surprised/sad/clueless expression on their face! But I guess it was an ok movie. (Except for the bugs. You will hear me scream if I see a cockroach, worm, etc.)
