King Kong review
I liked King Kong. PJ did an excellent job of it. There were many things in the movie that i found my self saying sweet job, nice.
I really did not watch for acting, over acting, or bad acting. I think they were all very strong characters. Well played. There were very few instances were i groaned mentally over the acting.
Onto the effects:
Despite all i had read and heard about the effects, this is why I went. I wanted to see the dream made real. I was not let down. Now i found some of the island sets artificial, but then again I think that is intentional. The fight scenes, the movement of the creatures were well done.
Couple of the chase scenes were, hmm odd. Out running a raptor with a 20 foot stride, and bronti with a much longer stride... Well it's artistic license i guess.
Overall I really enjoyed this movie.
In comparison: I preferred CON much better than this movie. I was more emotionally drawn into the CON film than this one. The action parts between the two were in my opinion on par with each other.
As for the acting, I would have to say Kongs cast did a better job than the members of CON. That being said, the attentive rapture i felt while watching CON was not present when watching KONG. Something was missing. This was a slight disconnect that might have made this my favorite movie of the year.
