"King Kong Song" with ABBA

Hmmm.
Yesterday I saw "King Kong" – the new movie by Peter Jackson.
A short review: It’s too long (some kids left the cinema after 1½ hour, when the big ape really hadn’t emerged from the jungle yet), it has to many dinosaurs for my taste (even if they look way more cool than in either "Jurassic Parc"-movie), and…well…it’s not The Lord of the Rings. But the gorilla is beautiful and every scene with him and Naomi Watts is pure movie magic. Kong is clearly one of the biggest CGI achievements ever, and the scenes from New York in the 30’s are also spot on.
So, to summarize I would give it a very strong 6 out of 10. If Peter Jackson had allowed Kong to spend more time in NYC and with his lovely girl, and less time chasing big insects on Skull Island, the grade would have risen.

The song of today is given. Not one of ABBA's proudest moments though. ;)

Keep readin’
Tomorrow’s a new day and a new song.
