Critic Reviews:

• " In an era of reduced expectations, King Kong is one movie where everyone, studio and audience, gets their money's worth. " – Chris McCoy

• " From start to finish, this is an extravaganza, a classic and a love story that you will long hold in the palm of your hand as Kong holds us in his. " – Debbie Lynn Elias

• " Who would have thought a remake of one of the greatest films ever could rival, if not surpass, the original? In Jackson's capable hands, that's just what King Kong does. " – Matthew Lucas
