However, for a few minutes, I'll try to continue this review taking into account that the vast majority of you have never seen the 1933 original. This new version is perhaps one of the best cinema remakes of recent years! BUT.(and it is a very BIG 'BUT'!) The simple fact that it is not an original story involves many limitations, at least, in my opinion! The director of King Kong (2005), Peter Jackson (Trilogy: Lord of the Rings), says he saw the original version at age nine and that was what inspired him to become a film-maker. Although the film tripled me in age, its special effects were the best I had ever seen, without a doubt. In 1956, when I was 8, I saw the original version (1933) of King Kong for the first time. WARNING: Contains what might be considered a couple minor spoilers! Reviewed by KissEnglishPasto 8 / 10 King Kong. Carl and Ann's new love, Jack Driscoll must travel through the jungle looking for Kong and Ann, whilst avoiding all sorts of creatures and beasts. Living on this hidden island is a giant gorilla and this beast now has Ann is its grasps. No one knows what they will encounter on this island and why it is so mysterious, but once they reach it, they will soon find out.
This 'soon-to-be-unfortunate' soul is Ann Darrow. But he still needs to find a leading lady. Carl Denham needs to finish his movie and has the perfect location Skull Island.
