I can not give a movie higher praises than this. From the myth surrounding the movie to the undisputable importance, to the great original story, to the superb musical score. It would be #1 on my list, but sadly it is a bit dated. |

|
hey fellas prepare for a thriller of a lifetime because A Giant gorrila is on the loose!!!!!!! JK im just reviewing the 3rd best movie of the 30s but the most epic movie yet. King Kong is about a filmmaker Carl Denham who goes o the jungle to shoot a movie but they werent alone there were indians trying to kill them but nothing worked so they unleash King Kong to get rid of them almost worked but he followed them back to New York and it has the whole state scared to hell so they tried to get rid of him (considering he had a girl in his hands) by airplanes
that is where the famous airplane gorilla scene came from some King Kong does get killed but as they say in the very last line
" It wasnt the airplanes it was beauty that killed the beast"

Not a bad movie, but it's not as great as its hype would lead you to believe. The character, Anne, never tried to run away from Kong! That bothered me for some reason. Also, calling the indigennous population to the island "heathens" bothered me as well. But, all in all, not a bad movie. It was worth the money I spent on it. Which, I believe was only $5.98. |

The one true King of Monster Movies |
|
This is one of the best monster movies ever made. And, unlike more recent movies in the genre, one the entire family can watch where parents do not have to worry about scenes of graphic violence.
"Carl Denham" (Robert Armstrong) is a high-risk-taking motion picture director known for risking the lives of his cast and crew, but always brings them back with spectacular films that garner fair reviews. He was able to gain possession of a hand-drawn map which leads to an island unknown to civilzation.
"Denham" charters a boat with a tough crew under command of "Captain Englehorn" (Frank Reicher) and his First Mate "Jack Driscoll" (Bruce Cabot). "Denham" brings on board his latest star discovery, "Ann Darrow" (Fay Wray, in her most famous role), whom he found on a New York City street l... |

Great |
|
If you know the story behind Merian C. Cooper, it makes the movie even better. The things that they were able to do with this is pretty incredible. It can be very cheesy at times, but it doesn't matter. It's a rare treat of film, where your eyes are glued to the screen for most of it. I love it. |
