King Kong. Wow.

Tonight we went to watch "King Kong". Both my husband and I were a bit unsure if we would like it - we had heard so much about the movie, especially that the first hour was considered to be boring by a lot of people. And that it's so long...
But hey - we both are very much impressed! The beginning isn't boring at all - it's a great introduction of the characters, explains why they go to this island and makes more of the movie than just an action film.
The parts on the island with Kong and the other animals is impressive, technically well done and with a lot of surprising moments.
And I'd never have thought that there would be so many scenes that are actually comical or even cute! Really, Kong has won my heart, he's sometimes just adorable.
When we came out of the theatre my first statement was: "I want to have the DVD!!!!!" And I meant: now!

Woah. I knew that Peter Jackson is a great director - he proved that beyond doubt with "Lord of the Rings" - but I never thought that this movie would have such depth and complexity!

movie, peter jackson, king kong
