5 out of 5 stars YOU HAVE GOT TO BE TAKING THE P***!!!!!   January 28, 2007

This film is JAW DROPPIN, MOUTH WATERING AND BREATH TAKING!!! br / br /I viewed it my my 42" Sharp Aquos 1080p from source Toshiba XE1 HD DVDPlayer (this player is the only 1080p HD DVD Player which has just arrived here in the UK) my was pre-ordered! br / br /This movie was more than PERFECT, the picture quality was so crisp and detailed (appear 3D in some scenes, like he was going to burst through the screen)that I had to "pause" it every other minutes to take it in and let my brain process the information after watchin it the 4th time!! From a 1080p source to a 1080p screen, clarity and detail are so packed in, that in scenes you can see the oil/grease on Kong's fur! br /Audio Dolby TrueHD on my surround 5.1 KEF system, through an Onkyo504 Receiver, need I say the sound was BREATH TAKING! In close up scenes you can hear Kong's heart beat!!!! br / br /I own the SD dvd which is good but NO NO NO comparison to the HD version!! DON'T even think of it!! br / br /


3 out of 5 stars Kind Kong: Xbox 360 Review   January 18, 2007

The step up in quality from DVD is significant and just about merits the cost of the XBOX HD-DVD add on. However although this is labelled as 16:9 format it is closer to 18:9 so it suffers from black borders at top and bottom. It is also obvious that the film studio spent an enourmous amount of effort rendering King Kong so that he looks near perfect. Unfortunately the backgrounds and buildings around King Kong are of far lower quality and look flat and lifeless, a bit like painted backgrounds.
