Well I will need to see it again before reviewing it so I will leave the first review to Nido. I'll need to see it again for a few reasons:
1) Someone inconsiderate bought their baby into the theatre and it HOWLED for the first 1/4 of the movie before they took it outside.
2) It's quite long and I drifted in and out in parts as it was quite slowly paced in parts.
3) I was quite tired.
4) The theatre was PACKED and the audience noise was quite loud.
5) I don't quite know what to say about some things :x
Overall it was really good. The cgi was amazing and Kong looks very real. It's really emotional and has some awesome scenes in it. However the dialogue is a bit bleh...I need to see it again to comment on this.
New York is done superbly too, especially the empire state building scenes.
Naomi Watts and Adrien Brody were pretty good too. Will comment on Jack Black on second viewing...not so sure about him, but he looked the part.
Kong vs. T-rex ROCKED big time!
If your mum and dad plan to take the whole family, just be cautioned: this really isn't for young kids. There are some pretty gruesome scenes in there.
What I will do is give it a rating:
8.5/10 won't change for me
SPOILER: KING KONG BITES OFF ANN DARROW'S FINGER AND FALLS INTO MT. DOOM!
