Sci-Fi Classic Review: KING KONG (1976)

1976's King Kong is an ambitious remake that does many things well, but still falls short of surpassing the original.

If you're looking for a "review" in the traditional sense, then let me just say I like this movie. This video, however, is a "review" in the literal sense (using the Miriam-Webster definition "a retrospective view or survey"), in that I'm going over the history of the film and its place in sci-fi cinema history.

In other words, please stop commenting on how my videos aren't what you consider "reviews."
