KING KONG!!

King Kong is the best show I have seen this year!  Given, it is the only new movie I’ve seen this year, but it is still excellent.  I love the girl, named Anne, in it.  She’s smart, resilient, and quick on her feet, often literally.  I can’t believe how many times she keeps going, even after most people would’ve accepted that they’re dead.  This caused her to stay alive.  At some points she was close to death, and I had to remind myself that the main lady couldn’t be killed off.  

At one scene in this movie, there was a giant grasshopper.  It was DISGUSTING!  I hate grasshoppers in the first place, but this completely wrecked it for me.  I will never be able to look at those beady-eyed creatures again.  

This movie was excellently done.  It was long, 3 hours 7 minutes, but it didn’t seem that bad to me.  Peter Jackson, the director, doesn’t know how to make short films, though.  His Lord of the Rings movies are just another example of that.  I thought the actors played their parts perfectly.  I was impressed at how real they made Kong look.  I can only imagine the kinds of technology it would take to make this film.  

Okay, I know this isn’t exactly “honors caliber”, but I’m very excited about this movie.  It was amazing!!
