Movie Reviews of King Kong [HD DVD]
Movie Review: a little too good
Summary: 3 Stars
Kong is a very good showcase of the capabilities of HD-DVD. However, the transfer may be a little TOO good, as it shows the inherent flaws in the CG/effects. For instance, it becomes blatantly obvious during the brontosaurus stampede that everyone was green screened. There are also many scenes in this transfer where you can see small defects in the CG that weren't caught during the editing process. Because of the lower bitrate/resolution on the DVD version, these issues are not apparent.Movie Review: Lacks Features
Summary: 3 Stars
The picture quality is obvious great and the Picture-in-Picture features are very nice, however overall it really lacks the same bonus material you'd find on a regular DVD such as Deleted Scenes, full movie commentary (the PiP is a combination of commentary and behind-the-scenes), and other things that most people have come to expect. If you want this movie and have an HD DVD player/drive it is probably worth it, as long as you understand what you're missing.Movie Review: Excellent Example of HD
Summary: 3 Stars
The picture and sound on this HD DVD is excellent. If you want to show off your HD TV & player to someone, this would be a good disc to flip through. Sadly, it was wasted on a movie that could have been made to run in less than half the 3+ hours that it does. Nearly every scene is excruciatingly long and drawn out. The 5-star ratings are baffling to me, but I suppose it is worth having it in your collection.Movie Review: A bad movie, but with excellent picture
Summary: 3 Stars
I thought the movie was pretty bad itself with story line and I got grossed out with the bugs, but the picture quality is sure great to watch. Probably the best movie I saw in HD DVD and I own willy wonka, Last Samurai, Fast and the Furious, and Spactacus. The picture quality does not even match close to king kong. I give it three stars just because the movie itself was bad.Movie Review: Got it early.
Summary: 3 Stars
I got this movie early with my Xbox 360 HD-DVD drive. I give it 3 stars not because of the picture quality but becuase the movie its self is only ok. Its kind of long for my taste, the whole part with the dinosours unnessary, and could be cut to make the movie shorter.
