Everyone is complaining about how this movie is three hours long. I can't even count the numerous times I came out of a movie, after paying 8 or 9 bucks, feeling ripped off because the movie was around an hour of basically crap. This movie delivers on every level and it moves along at a good pace. It is obvious that Peter Jackson loves King Kong and went out of his way to make sure he didn't ruin the source material. The original was a pure adventure movie, and a great one at that. It was a movie centered around special effects. If people are tired of movies with CGI in them, then why go see a movie about a giant ape that fights dinosaurs? How else are you supposed to do it these days? I've seen the original and the 1970's version, and this is the best of them all. Jackson expands upon what the original created and does a fantastic job. He shows what a great movie directors can make when they care about the movie first. Go see it!
