Super impressed!! That’s why 5 Stars!

Naomi Watts and Andy Serkis deserve Oscars for their work here; her heart breaks staring longingly into green screen, he runs about naked on all fours covered with motion sensors. But there's more to this movie than an Achievement in Visual Effects. Ann Darrow (Naomi Watts) only speaks three words to Kong (Andy Serkis) throughout her entire time with him: "Yes", "No", and "Beautiful". It's an uncomplicated feeling they share; in fact, the whole movie is uncomplicated - but it's also profound and sad.The movie suffers by following Peter Jackson's own Return of the King. Not in terms of technical quality (I doubt any task would daunt him following that particular trilogy), but because someone still hasn't bought a pair of editing scissors. Jackson, along with long-time co-writers Fran Walsh and Philippa Boyens, squeeze suspense and adventure from every nook and cranny, from the typing of the word 'Skull' to the writing of a cheque. The narrative is breezy on paper: waves break, jaws break... then hearts break. Simple! But no, Kong goes on too long; particularly in this Extended Edition, which sees a disgruntled triceratops and a giant piranha push us well past the three-hour threshold.The original problems still remain. It's not always logical. Let's excuse Darrow's apparent invulnerability in the same way we excuse the physical illogicality of a 30-foot ape. But less believable is the crew's mission to save her - 17 violent spinning deaths later, one wonders if perhaps those Weta whizzkids don't share Jackson's obvious adoration for humankind. So many nameless crew-mates to feed the wanton carnage. But heck, why are we introduced to any of the crew at all? Characters like Jimmy (Jamie Bell) and Captain Englehorn (Thomas Kretschmann) are conspicuously absent from the final reel anyway.Yet there is so, so much to admire. Jackson's King Kong contains far more than eight measly wonders: so much drama and action, and so many sunsets. Jackson and cinematographer Andrew Lesnie have a real eye for the demands of the moment: epic, claustrophobic, kinetic, or otherwise. And the beasties are brilliant: scuttling, slavering, and always looking for another bite to eat.And, more than any of that, it is a movie with a real beating heart, and that heart lies in the scenes shared by Darrow and Kong. Jackson's real success with Lord of the Rings, aside from that project's sheer scale, was in presenting the fantastical without irony or feyness. And likewise here, a girl in a ballgown in New York midwinter falls in love with a hulking beast. Such is Jackson's expert control, unseen since Spielberg's populist heyday; such is his absolute conviction that some themes - namely the death of innocence - transcend the language of words. Like his own Heavenly Creatures, he is having fun making a nonsense of our notions of beauty and chastity. And I, for one, will remember the glint in Kong's eyes long after I've forgotten that giant piranha.

I purchased this Blue-Ray King Kong because I wanted the extended version..There are no problems with the Blue-Ray discs themselves.All features work until you get to play the Theatrical or Extended versions.I was playing this movie through an LG Blue-Ray player and the Audio was missing from both film versions.Everything else plays perfectly.So here is a quick work around for the LG B-R Player..Go to Settings on your LG and change the Audio to PCM now go back and play either movie version all will work perfectly after that.As for the review I absolutely love the King Kong franchise and I do already have the extended version but not on Blue Ray..The Peter Jackson movie was the best ever, but then I have always been a Peter Jackson fan..Taking nothing away from the original classic because for its time and people the movie back then was probably quite frightening as the stop motion side of things other than Disney animation no one had done anything like this before.... KONG!!!!!!!Now we come to the Peter Jackson version and thus far it is the best out there and have probably watched it more tImes now than most films I have ever watched.Excellent production and looking forward to watching all the extras.. It's pretty impressive how this movie was put together and the amount of work the actor who played Kong had put into the choreography, study of detail In real Apes and Primates.Plasying two parts Kong and the Cook I could not think of a better person playing that role he was suited.Anyway great movie and now the Audio Probs are sorted Its an even better film now with sound haha..

As a longtime collector of physical media this really was a great purchase; the packaging is simply stunning. Beautiful sturdy slipcase and the steelbook inside is one of the best I’ve ever seen. Tons of special features and the production notes, poster and art cards are really well put together. And to top it all off a really good 4k transfer. The definitive edition to own of this movie, Really delighted to own this limited edition

Gioco arrivato con due giorni d’anticipo, perfettamente funzionante sulle mie PSP Fat e Slim & Lite. Il gioco è una trasposizione dall’omonimo film di Peter Jackson del 2005. La versione PSP rispetto alle versioni per PC e console fisse è più catterai graficamente e ci sono meno livelli e quelli che ci dono presentano dei tagli ed alcune scene d’azione complesse che sono state trasformate in più semplici filmati prerenderizzati., quindi il titolo in meno di due ore di gioco si porta a termine. Resta comunque un pilastro dei giochi per PSP e per chi ha ed usa ancora questa console non può certo mancare in collezione. Acquisto consigliassimo
