“Proving that bigger doesn’t necessarily mean better, the most hyped summer movie of the year gets a holiday release and while King Kong circa 2005 is a version that certainly strengthens the original source material, it also shows that a filmmaker’s own ambition and fervor for biblical portions sometimes has its drawbacks.”
