WHAT'S IT ABOUT? The ultimate version of beauty and the beast! Explorers uncover a giant Martin Keown look-a-like, who develops disturbed infatuation with tiny blonde girl.

ANY GOOD? More hormone-bubbling CGI brilliance from Peter Jackson, and not a hobbit in sight. (Kong squashed them all).

QUOTE FOR THE POSTER: 'He's big, he's fat, he's hairy...yes, it's Jack Black as Carl Denham.'

REASON TO WATCH: Kong slugging it out with a horde of dinosaurs as he bids to woo his sweetheart. If ever a scene required 'I Need A Hero' on the soundtrack, this is it. (Except for maybe the rescue bit in The Three Amigos).
