    King Kong gets the Godzilla treatment.
  • May 8, 2008
    Its rubbish, but its so so funny. About 6,465 times more enjoyable than Peter Jackson's po-faced effort.
  • May 5, 2008

    This is an old King Kong move. It's still quite good.
  • September 25, 2007
    A contender for worst movie ever made. Bad story, bad acting and bad special effects. I give it 2 stars only because it was so bad it was funny.
