Just saw this last night, and i thought it was AWSOME. Much much better than i expected. Fantastic movie experience. I would say the only problem with the movie would be the length (which, i did not notice, BTW. It breezed by). So, anyone with ADD, or that just doesn't like to watch a 3 hour gorilla movie, maybe it won't be your cup of tea. It does devote a full hour or so to "setting up" the movie (i.e., before Kong shows up). But, you had this in the original as well (Kong appears 45 minutes into the 1933 version). And the setup is entertaining, anyway. If you cut the movie there (before Kong) and released it, it would be a fine drama film in itself.
So, if you are ready to sit back and relax and let the film happen, i strongly recomend. Just don't get the large soda.
