Beat up a little too much.

This movie is not great, or even that good. But I do not think that it should be beaten up nearly as much as it is by reviewers. I mean they tried to make this movie unique. The story is somewhat interesting and at least there is a lot going on. A female Kong is found and they decide to try to bring King Kong back to life by putting in a mechanical heart. This mechanical heart must have been well made because Kong Acts like normal once he comes to.

The acting is pretty adequate. Linda Hamilton is a pretty good actress, she is not that hot but at least she shows off one of her breasts for a split section. There are a few oddities. For one King Kong feeds on alligators in this film. Gorillas I thought were vegetarian, but it is a movie and I guess that accuracy to real life is not that important. The whole Kong and lady Kong relationship is kind of fast and not seen on screen that much. At least it did not show them mate on screen. There is some action at parts, but not enough. And the whole idea of bringing Kong back to life and then the army goes after him, maybe I missed something. And the ending to this film is pretty sad and depressing (I do not want to give it away).

So yeagh, this movie is not great. However it is not as bad as people say. There are some good parts, but I guess not enough. But I guess be the judge for yourself. If you liked the remake of King Kong made in 1976 go see this one. If you did not like the remake you probably wont like this one.

score 5/10
