King Kong, The King of all Movies
*****
Move over Lion King, there’s a new ape in town!
This is no Mighty Joe Young. This is more incredible than The Incredibles. More swinging than Spider-man. More gigantic than George of the Jungle! More terrific than Tarzan! It’s the one, the only, KING KONG!!!
This movie has the kind of violence you see in Jurassic Park but it’s funny in some ways too. The islanders or native people don’t take kindly to the newcomers. When Carl offers a native child some chocolate he violently grabs Carl’s arm and bites him. I had to hide behind my mom’s scarf when the natives were offering Ann to Kong, because if you see the natives you’ll get nightmares for the rest of your life (0r maybe a week.) Cover up!
It’s a love story between female and ape. King Kong is such a hero he saved Ann 3 times. In one scene in New York, Kong is playing with Ann on the ice in Central Park. Basically he is ice skating on his behumpus. My mom thought it was romantic when they were playing on the ice, but I liked it when the ice exploded as the military shot a gun at Kong. From my perspective violence rocks but romance makes me want to barf.
I think it stunk that they made King Kong into a show animal. He seemed human, just like your regular everyday Robert De Niro. I’m not sure who Robert De Niro is, but Kong looked like the kind of guy who should be named Robert De Niro. Carl [Jack Black] is a movie producer with a wild mind for films. But when he hears the CEO are planning to fire him’ he slips away to a ship that will take him to the destination of his next film, Skull island. Everything’s going the way it’s supposed to be. Carl has got a crew, a beautiful female, and an actor to do the stunts. No problem right? No. Once they get on the island, the native people who live there don’t take to kindly to the crew. They attack the crew members and later steal Ann’ Jack’s female to offer as a sacrifice to Kong.
