Reviews for King Kong
easy to mock, but hard to truly dislike

Dino de Laurentis se atrevió a hacer lo que muy pocos tienen las agallas de intentar: realizar el remake de un clásico por antonomasia: King Kong.

This is one biblically awful piece of cinema, yet it gets two stars because it's just so damn funny.
