KING KONG(1933):

One great oldie!!! One of the best "monster movies"
ever made, even stands up after all these years!!
A lot of this I didn't remember 'til I re-watched it
again. Several dinosaurs, a native ritual, and of
course the great finale that I defy anyone to forget!!
Just a great movie! A

From an Amazon.com customer:

The original King Kong is by far still the best movie
of its type to this day. The terrific and exciting fight
scenes between the creatures even today has
not been surpassed. Nothing that Spielburg has done
has reached the genius of Merian Cooper. When one
considers that these scenes were done without
the use of computer or animation but used stop
action photography and 18" models, genius IS
the only way to describe their efforts! And
the scenes of the Ape destroying the village
and New York are horrific and tremendous
film making! The action is riveting! Dialog is
a little corny but fun! "I've never seen it fail,
some hard-boiled egg gets a look at a pretty
face and wham! He crack's up and goes sappy
on me!" "Don't be alarmed! Those chains are
made of chromium steel!" "Well, Denum, looks
like the planes got'em." "No, It was beauty that
killed the beast!"

Supurb film from beginning to end. And Fay
Wray has the BEST scream in movie history.
It is still used today on soundtracks!

No one's done it better!

This film fits the classical form of a Greek
tradgety. FANTASTIC! - Charles Chisari

SON OF KONG(1933):

Quite a bit different than the great "King Kong"
movie, this non-the-less is really fun! By far not
as serious, with baby Kong actually making friends
with the main characters!! Again, this has an
ending(actually about five minutes before the
ending) that again, 'tho I didn't remember ninety
percent of this, stuck with me to this day! Fun for all! B+

From an Amazon.com customer:

"Son of Kong" was a hurried sequel to "King
Kong" made the same year. While it cannot
dramatically compete with "Kong" it certainly
has alot to like about it. Star Robert Armstrong
once said he liked playing Denham in "Son"
because his character was more dimensional
with "swell love scenes", as he put it. Helen
Mack is no Fay Wray, and her brunette bob
contrasts nicely with Little Kong's white fur.
The animation is actually better in places
than in "Kong", specifically with the elimination
of the unwanted movements of the ape's fur
due to the animator's fingerprints left on
the models. Despite these achievements,
animator Willis O'Brien never liked to talk
about the sequel in his later years and
resented the tongue in cheek approach
to the material. - Darryl M. Haase "dothehucklebuck"
