King Kong - 2005

Wow! That was a great movie. Natashia, Bill and I went today. I laughed, screamed, and cried. (I'm sure that Natashia was embarrassed for me) I can't help but scream when a giant centipede is sticking its antenae in the girl's mouth, and the bugs, bugs, and more bugs. Eww. I am also famous for crying at anything even slightly emotional, death, loss, hallmark commercials.

Going beyond the action and mayhem, this movie has wonderful depth. It shows so many characteristics of man. Beauty, hate, greed, love, cowardice. Brilliant, not your typical monster movie.

I am left wondering what became of Ann Darrow after she witnessed the destruction of Kong. How would you move forward from something that amazing? What became of her life? Personally, I kind of thought she should have jumped, but since this wasn't a love story between a woman and an ape, she got to throw herself into the arms of the writer.

Go see the movie, you will definately get your money's worth.
