After the Peter Jackson King Kong movie, this animated spin-off told the story of another Kong, a more heroic and human-friendly version. After beauty killed the beast, a young scientist Dr. Lorna Jenkins cloned him and took him back to Kong Island. Her grandson Jason (voice actor Kirby Morrow, who has played everything from Cyclops to Michaelangelo the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle) and his friend Tan (Scott McNeil, whose voice was all over Dragon Ball Z) decided to take their teacher Ramon De La Porta (David Kaye, the narrator of Fido) to meet Kong, but it turned out that he was evil, using the Primal Stones of the island to unleash the evil elder god Chyros. Luckily, Jason, Kong and an island named Lua (Saffron Henderson, who was the rocking J. J. in Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan) have always been around to protect the world. Unlike the animated series, this is all 3D rendered and has not aged well, but the story itself is still pretty good. If you have young kids at home who love Kong and monsters, well, this is perfect, with the big ape battling alongside and against cyber hunters, wooly mammoths, saber toothed tigers, raptors, a T. Rex, a giant cave snake and more.

Different animation, but same old Kong.

The series: Kong The Animated Series has always been a favorite since my early teens. One of the few animated series that had me binge watching over and over. The movie is no different. When I first saw the change in animation I was hesitant, but a few minutes in, hearing to same old voices and familiar story type gave me an immediate sense of nostalgia. 10 out of 10 down. I am not disappointed, though some would say otherwise. Don't judge a book by its first few pages, give it a chance before juding.
A good movie.

This a great movie. It has a great story line. It also has great acting. It also has great animation. Kong the animated series is better. 4.9 is a good ratting. But this such a great movie that 4.9 is underrating it. This is a 7. Kong King of Atlantis is better. Kong skull island is better. King Kong escapes is also better. King Kong vs Godzilla is also better. Son of Kong is also better. King Kong (1933) is also better. King Kong (2005) is also better. King Kong (1976) is also better. King Kong lives is also better. Still this a great movie. It a lot better then The Mighty Kong. I do not know why people keep giving this movie a 3. If you like a good science fiction movies then you like this movie.
