KING KONG
starstarstarstar
Peter Jackson's remake of Merian C. Cooper and Ernest B. Schoedsack's 1933 fanstasy masterpiece is twice as long as the original and uses every trick of modern technology while remaining faithful to the original's fairy-tale heart. From his establishing shot of zoo animals, which dissolves into a dismal Central Park Hooverville, Jackson is firmly in control of his materials and metaphors, and he delivers three solid hours of breathless, enchanting entertainment.
