1 1/2 hour until you see the goddamn ape. and I'm supposed to believe that KK fell in love with the woman....who fell in love with the ape. the most expensive beastiality film I have seen.

While I enjoyed King Kong, how do you find it overrated? It was given so-so reviews...it didn't make much of an impact at the box office (did it even make back its budget?), and it was neither nominated or won any awards. Also, from most people I talk to, they hated it. How is that overrated, again?

[Matt]

King Kong won three Oscars if I remember correctly, it was tied with Crash and Brokeback Mountain that year for the most Oscars.

I don't really consider Sound Editing, Sound Mixing and Visual Effects that big of awards. I was just debating how someone finds that film overrated.

[Matt]

They still count towards the count total.

I think some people aren't taking into consideration that overrated doesn't mean bad. The Godfather (part one and two) are overrated but not bad movies.
