Review of King Kong (2005) by Joshua W — 26 Dec 2013
A visual marvel full of exciting sequences, beautiful vistas, and an incredible attention to detail. It is overlong but not excessive, and the characters do fall flat for the most part. Especially egregious is the relationship between first mate Hayes and troubled youth Jimmy.
It's a relationship that ends up feeling incredibly contrived. The real star is the titular character himself and the special effects artists behind him.
