So our good friends, MB and CA, went to see King Kong last night. Given my previous reservations about it, I was interested to hear what they had to say. And despite the critical acclaim, I'm going to pass, thank you very much.
Here is MB's always entertaining take:
I'm sorry to tell you, but I thought it was absolutely terrible. CA fell asleep for the first hour. Save your money, or go an hour after the movie starts...
I didn't think it was possible for one's butt to fall asleep, but mine did. It was 3 freakin hours! And it wasn't Lord-of-the-Rings 3 hours, it was Ishtar 3 hours.
And CA, who was looking forward to the action, was not thrilled:
I had trouble keeping my eyes open for the first part. I had to wait well over an hour for the first dinosaur to get killed.
So I'm going to pass... and see Brokeback Mountain instead.
