For 21 years old, King Kong vs 3 V-Rex’s is still peak cinema

For as God awful as the stampede scene with the raptors and brontosaurs was, this scene is still Jackson at the top of his game.
Even though it is kinda dumb that one V-Rex just ate a whole meal then feels compelled to chase Naomi Watts.
The CGI mixed with Naomi being flipped around and held by Kong and the perfect cut of the music to straight sound once they go off the cliff is awesome.
I remember my mom dropping me and a buddy off for a 9 pm opening showing before we’d looked at the run time. She showed up at like 11 and we had another hour to go.
This was the best you could do back in 2005, still awesome

Insect scene sends chills through me. I hate that scene. I wish the original spider pit scene from Kong 1 had survived time.
Terrible movie to watch the firs time today but I loved 76 as a kid. And I still prefer that soundtrack to Jackson's Kong.

The score was great and i really liked the New York scenes.
Aside from the T. rex battle, the rest of the island scenes felt like a straight ripoff of Jurassic park.
Jackson’s King Kong would’ve been much better had it been 30-60 minutes shorter.

The movie is too long but I have only rewatched it maybe once because I hate that insect scene so much. All these years later and that damn bug just swallowing Andy's head still gives me the creeps and it keeps me from watching it again. lol.
