Not sure why anyone would rate this below 3 stars. Great action, story, effects, etc. Scary-ish in parts. Young kids should probably avoid, but it's King Freakin Kong not Curious George.

This is the best King Kong movie to date (meaning 2005) and a better Jurassic Park movie than most of the Jurassic Park movies. I’ve always found Skull Island to be the most interesting part of the King Kong story, and this movie delivers. The island itself is interesting, dangerous, and full of life. They did a great job creating its atmosphere. The characters in this movie are a huge improvement over previous iterations. Denham, Anne, Jack, and even Kong are way more fleshed out than they have been previously. All of the actors bring their A-game, and this is arguably Jack Black’s best role. Visually, this movie is stunning, with an incredible soundtrack to back it up. While the effects have aged some now, Kong himself looks incredible for the time. The movie wasn’t perfect. For one, it has an over three hour runtime. For the most part, it uses that time well, but during the last hour I really started to feel how long the movie was. The movie also really loves really cheesy slow motion. If they cut that out, I’m convinced the movie could have been closer to 2.5 hours. Also, the Skull Island natives feel *less* offensive than the earlier renditions, but they’re still not great. Overall, This is the best take on the classic King Kong story out there. If you have enough time to kill, it is definitely worth the watch.

I have much respect for Peter Jackson in remaking his favorite movie. The effects are really cool, but they had a little too much of a field day with making it creepy. That 10 minute scene with the bugs lost it a lot of points in my book. It's worth at least one watch, but I prefer Kong: Skull Island.

“King Kong” is a magnificent entertainment. It is like the flowering of all the possibilities in the original classic film.

Technically dazzling but way too long and a lot of overkill. Could have cut about 40 minutes off this movie. It's a typical example of how Peter Jackson over indulges.

Very well made and entertaining. Interesting perspective was the natives living in fear of large beasts on the island....leads one to draw the conclusion what life would have been like had God allowed the dinosaurs to exist among us.

It honours the original with great characters but dodgy cgi.

So good I love the styles and yet the audience gave a bad score really bad audience not opinion bashing here

i will never forgive the one guy who gave the movie 2.5 stars out of 5. it's my 21st fav movie tied with the 1933 classic. this was an absolute love letter to the original.

I LOVED this movie. This movie is a really great one. From the storytelling, to the CGI, everything about it was great! (Except for its run time)

Delievers on Expanding the characters and action of the classic 1933 film, but fails on every other level. plus, the film makes titanic seem short.

Peter Jackson’s King Kong has amazing visual effects, production values, and some surprising emotional depth.

Peter Jackson’s King Kong pays homage to the 1933 film in a more contemporary manner, unlike the 1976 version. With its extended runtime of 3 hours, the film boasts stunning visuals, solid acting performances, and an overall enjoyable adventure. Grading: B+

Movie of the Year 2005 King Kong 20th Anniversary this year. I just wanna say looking back at this movie brings back memories of how Peter Jackson vision this movie he wanted to make a greatest remake of all time and greatest adventure movie yet. Its well directed, performances, although runtime can be overwhelmed.

Peter Jackson's work shines, best King Kong movie.

Compared to other reboots this one is more neat and tries to stay true to the essence of the King Kong movies in general.

Golazo. Pochoclera posta

I've always liked this film! Visually, it's impressive for the most part! The story is solid and well fleshed out! The mystery around the island, the creatures that live there, and King Kong himself, are done incredibly well! It feels like a long but rewarding journey! The score is also fantastic in my opinion. I'd highly recommend! Particularly, if you enjoy this genre.

This is an amazing film but it scared me to much .
