King Kong

I was getting some not-so-subtle hints about an impending disaster if I didn't post sometime soon so I decided to take the safer route. ;-)

Rated: PG:13 for frightening adventure, violence and some disturbing images.
Starring: Naomi Watts as Ann Darrow, Arien Brody as Jack Driscoll, Jack Black as Carl Denham, and Andy Serkis as King Kong
Directed by: Peter Jackson (who did another awesome job)

Ann Darrow, like many other actresses, finds herself without a job during the Great Depression. She is discovered by Carl Denham, a film director who is looking for a lead in his next film. Ann is reluctant to sign on with Carl until she learns that Jack Driscoll, a socially relevant playwright, is penning the script. Filming aboard the S.S.Venture which is supposedly heading for Singapore Carl is able to persuade the captain of the ship to aid them in his search for Skull Island. Once they arrive at their destination the rest of their journey is packed with so much action and violence including creepy natives, dinosaurs, giant insects, bats, and of course King Kong, that it's overwhelming.
I'd give it a 4 out of 5 (it was rather long at some parts.)
