King Kong : It's Big
It's a LOOONG movie - just over 3 hours. We all exercised good bladder control. An intermission could have been a good idea. According to an article in Wikipedia, this is the most expensive film ever made in terms of number of actual dollars spent, which is put at about $207 million. I remember going to see the previous remake from 1976, which was a modern take of the tale, where Kong climbed the World Trade Tower, and Jessica Lange was the woman in his life. Anyways, this movie had 3 parts - Part 1 took place in New York during the depression and on a boat, which introduces the characters, Part 2 took place on Skull Island with Kong and all his friends, and Part 3 saw us back in New York for the finale, as well as a bizarre romp on the ice between Kong and Ann Darrow. Our verdict - well the boys are undecided. They liked the film, but felt it went a bit too long. The blogosphere has similar feelings.
