King Kong

After Kyle's, we got some sleep, and then my friends went home. Later on, Sreng and I went to the movies with Michelle, and her friend Diana. We saw the film King Kong. I kinda wanted to see this film after JT at worked raved about it. In the end though, I thought it was crappy. That guy from that film School of Rock (Jack Black) totally ruined the mood of the film. I honestly didn’t know if I was supposed to laugh at what he said, or take it seriously. If you have seen the film, the best example of this is the last line that closes the film. Sreng and I burst out laughing when he said this, but I’m sure we were not supposed to. How the hell did he get the role?
All the special effects were kinda cool, but went too far too. There were so many that sometimes it felt like I was watching the newest Dreamworks film or something. Most of the time they were totally unnecessary too. Not only that, but they didn’t look all that realistic, almost like they hadn’t been totally polished up. I wonder if the film was rushed out.
The best part of the film was the first 45 minutes or so, after that there was no story. Oh, and if plot holes bother you, don’t see this film! There are so many, such as:
How the hell did they bring King Kong home from the island?
Why didn’t that girl (Naomi Watts) freeze her titties off? It was winter, she was wearing only lingerie, and she was on the top of the Empire state building! What the Fuck?
And, where was all the blood? Hell, don’t have a film where bodies get ripped apart, and leave out the blood!
Oh, and good god, why was this film over 3 hours????! There was about half an hour of story, and a ton of useless characters. I didn’t connect to any of them, and felt nothing when they died.
Well there’s my review. If you want to go see a good movie go see Brokeback Mountain. This site gave it 5 out of 5, and gave King Kong 3 out of 5. Sorry Peter Jackson, but I hope your next film is something totally different that this.
