Here is my review of King Kong: THIS MOVIE F***ING BLOWS To say a little more... This film is proof that Peter Jackson is extremely boring, because this piece of crap dragged on way past the point of entertainment. It could have ended at 1h30m and been somewhat alright (not great, but not bad either). But it was twice as long as it should have been. THREE HOURS LONG. (Plus time to drive to/from the theater. Plus standing in line to buy tickets. Plus arriving early to get a seat. The overall experience is easily 4 hours roundtrip.) Do you have 4 hours sitting around, waiting to be flushed down the toilet for a crap film? Don't you have anything better to do with your time? In all seriousness, I would have enjoyed watching anything else over this. It would have been more rewarding to watch Spanish soap operas, or Home Shopping Network, or even 4 hours of The Weather Channel. But not this. Boring, boring, boring. And for what? So we can sit through a bajillion dramatic close-ups of a computer-generated gorilla. Shit. There is easily 10 minutes of footage where we're looking straight up that damn gorilla's nose. Did I need to see any of that? Hell no. Did it add anything to the storyline? Hell no. Is Peter Jackson obsessed with being boring and dull? You bet he is. I repeat, do NOT see this movie. |
