Directed by Peter Jackson, with numerous positive reviews and being the first movie for 2006 (or for a long time since i last seen one in a theatre), King Kong had the makings of a perfect evening.

But last night King Kong was a real bore despite the high expectations! It would be going way too hard on the film to say that its boring, but - bum cramps aside - i left the theatre almost as tickled as i would, had i chose to nap at home!

In essense, the show was way too long and followed too rigidly to the novel (i think ar). The fight scenes were brilliant - trademarks of Peter Jackson, but the ending was.....zzzzzz.

Ok next up. Geisha.
