DVD Review: At three hours, seven minutes this film is as big as King Kong himself. Peter Jackson, the director, manages to capture several films in one epic. It emcompasses the thrilling treasure hunt, the adventure on Skull Island, and the action of Kong in the City. As Jackson imagines it, the story is one of friendship. It is a troubled friendship between Ann Darrow and King Kong, for Kong understands so little, and Ann can do so little. They are helpless and doomed, for the rest of the world, whether out of greed or out of fear, will unite to destroy them.
