March 30, 2006

Directed by Peter Jackson. Starring Jack Black, Naomi Watts, Adrien Brody. Rated PG-13.

Carl Denham (Jack Black) needs to finish his movie and has the perfect location; Skull Island. The leading lady of his movie is Ann Darrow (Naomi Watts). No one knows what they will encounter on this island and why it is so mysterious, but once they reach it, they will soon find out. Living on this hidden island is a giant gorilla and this beast now has Ann is it’s grasps. Carl and Ann’s new love, Jack Driscoll (Adrien Brody) must travel through the jungle looking for Kong and Ann, whilst avoiding all sorts of creatures and beasts. But Carl has another plan in mind…

Last night we went to circuit city and bought King Kong and watched it before bed. It was a pretty good movie. It was kind of weird to see jack black play a “normal” person and not another goofy character, but I think it worked out well. It was a fairly long movie and not exactly what I expected it to be about. I thought the majority of it would take place in New York with King Kong on the loose, but that was only a short bit of it. It had some creative writers behind it tho.
