Terrific movie!
|Posted .I absolutely enjoyed this movie. Reminds me of a Jurassic Park meets Indiana Jones movie. The special effects are fantastic. They did a stellar job on the 4K transfer. The video quality is gorgeous. It rivals any 4K movie out today. I’m very glad I picked this up. The SteelBook looks awesome also!

King Kong in 4k video perfection
|Posted .Without a doubt King King is the best looking 4k disc I've ever seen. Aquaman in 4k is close. Peter Jackson must of filmed it in 4k. Its perfection!

REFERENCE 4K DISC
Posted .Got this a little early and I must say that this is an amazing transfer. There is a YouTuber who reviews 4k Blu-rays on youtube and he is my go to for all my purchases and he hasn't steered my wrong yet. Here's his (very funny and entertaining) review on this:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gOE-R9IoodY

THE definitive edition!
|Posted .Let's start with a truth. I'm not the one for an unbiased opinion on Jackson's King Kong. I LOVE this film. One of the top 10 of films in my lifetime (I'm 47 for reference). I adored this film in the theaters. When it released as a Deluxe Extended 3-Disc Edition DVD, I gobbled it up and was STUNNED at just how much the studio forced PJ to cut. Certainly, the runtime was long enough, even after the cuts, and it wasn't the quantity of the edits, it was the sheer quality of what was pulled out. Mind you, had they left in these excellent scenes, almost all based around action, and made those edits elsewhere, say from narrative, it FEELS like we would have been left with largely a 3hour movie trailer of fights. Still, much like his Lord of the Rings films given the uncut treatment, when it comes down to it, it's almost unfathomable studios demand PJ make ANY cuts, as they invariably remove action scenes and still leave us with lengthy movies that should come with built-in intermission breaks. Removing dinosaur stampedes, raptor attacks, and Piranhadon fights is shameful and should cost people jobs that make such decisions. After moving to blu ray, they released a KK disc that featured both the theatrical and extended editions, but was missing the ENORMOUS amount of extras that came in that 3-disc DVD set. (It has somewhere in the vicinity of 15 various bonus features). So, I grabbed that. Then came the Ultimate Edition blu ray, which had both film versions and restored the majority of the 15 bonus features from DVD, and I grabbed THAT. So, of course, after I upgraded to 4K and saw the low asking price of this- $16- for one of my all-time faves, I couldn't NOT add that version to my collection, now could I? Now, this appears to be the "definitive (almost) definitive" edition. It's still the Ultimate Edition as far as extras, (I *BELIEVE* it's missing 2 or 3 small bonus features from the ancient 3disc DVD version, hence why I kept that set,) while upgrading the film to 4K. (Note: like with the regular UE blu ray of Kong, many of the featurettes are NOT upgraded, and remain in their standard definition format!) Is it worth it? As I said, I'm biased. BUT, still, at more than 1/2 off the price of newer 4K titles, I believe yes... yes, it is. Kong is gorgeous in 4K, with many scenes not this jaw-dropping since I saw it in the theater. However this transfer was handled should be THE standard for older, pre-4K films moving to the new format. My 4K library is still growing, but this was one of my favorites as it rolled along. I simply cannot find a reason NOT to double, triple, or, like in my instance, quadruple dip on this film if you have 4K.
