Blu-ray Edition of King Kong - 5 stars
Added 1/30/2010
Excellent picture and sound. If you have an excellent stereo system to play this through or a good surround sound system, you will be thrilled. The picture is also excellent and it is a good story. This is one you will want to own on Blu-ray.

King Kong on Blu-Ray is Incredible!
Added 1/29/2010
This review is for the Blu-Ray release. I just finished watching the extended version of this film on Blu-Ray and I thought it was amazing. Universal's transfer of this epic onto Blu-Ray is a show piece for the Blu-Ray format. The picture is crystal clear and vibrant in color. The CGI effects in this film are fantastic. The sound design transferred over to the DTS Master HD codec is among the best on Blu-Ray today. The sound has many sweeping effects that will give your surround sound system a complete workout.
Some reviews are critical on Jackson's film because it differs from the original or the performances were not up to snuff etc... Like this version or not as far as story and performances there is no way you can honestly say a negative thing about the look and sound of this film on Blu-Ray; it is nothing short of great. Props to Universal for giving such nice treatment to the Blu-Ray release of this film.

ABSOLUTELY GREAT!!

King Kong - Extended Cut (Three-Disc Deluxe Edition)
I recently ordered the 3-disc deluxe edition of Peter Jackson's King Kong, and just have to say that it was much better than I expected. The extra footage really adds alot to the movie, and the special effects were great.
[...]. has always delivered wonderful products, and I know that anytime that Amazon doesn't have a particular DVD but iNetVideo does, I am guaranteed to get exactly what I ordered.
Thanks again for a great product, and I will definitely continue to shop with Amazon and iNetVideo.

Horrible remake of a great classic
Added 1/18/2010
One of the many flaws of this remake is the humanization of Kong, which strips this monster of necessary mystique.
Bloated effects, terrible acting. . . awful as a whole. Overlong and pretentious.
Stick to the wonderful 1933 classic.
It scares me to think that remakes such as this may have a detrimental effect on younger viewers, leading them to believe that the original is archaic and unwatchable.
Anyone who doesn't like black and white movies should be shot.
