King Kong

I made time to watch the "regular" version of King Kong a couple of days ago. All 3 hours of it.

Really, it was too long. The middle section on Skull Island was great but the film took too long getting there and amazingly, when they got back to New York, you didn't get to see the reaction of all the people Jack Black's character had pissed off. I would have like to see that.

Great special effects and there were some trademark sweeping panoramic shots by Jackson. I half expected the camera to land in Isengard!

Rating 7/10. Mainly for the Skull Island bit.
