So over the holiday break, i was able to go to the movies for the first time in 3 1/2 years! That's right, it's been that long since I've caught a movie at a real movie theater...did I mention I have two boys, 3 years old and 2 years old?? Nonetheless, it sure was nice to get out and see a movie on the big screen...what was the movie? King Kong.

From the reviews, you would think you were in for a boring hour then a couple hours of monkey play...I found it to be 3 solid hours of fantastic entertainment...maybe its just because I haven't been in a theater in so long, but the movie was a non-stop rollercoaster of eye-candy.

If you already were a fan of the 1933 original film as I am, then you'll love this flick. It stays true to the original vision with all the latest and greatest CGI special effects. I can't wait to see this one again to catch all the little things you miss in such a whirlwind of movie action. i highly recommend this movie to anyone with an affinity for cutting edge special effects or if you just like big gorillas.
