King Kong

I could barely stay awake for the end of this one, not cause it was boring, but just too long. There are certain movies that can get away with being three hours long and I don't think this is one of them. There were plenty of scences that I thought were better off in the deleted scenes portion on the DVD. Other than the length I though it was a pretty good film. I expect a modern day film to be at least this good. Decent acting, story line, and special effects. I had never seen the original King Kong and I will likely never see this one again. Not that it wasn't good, but I think it belongs in the "been there, seen that" category.
