If ever there was a movie that didn't need that "studio cut" treatment..

..this one is it!

Honestly, they allowed that god-awful King Kong film to drone on for over 3 hours with the simplest story you could get, but couldn't trust the audience to stay with this complex one for the 30 extra minutes it so sorely needed to better the plot & concept?!
As a result I really can't imagine all that many who never played the games to make any sense of this film. Sure, it looks & performs great, but I, like the guy says early on, found myself saying: "What the f.. is going on?" And I've actually played the games!
Very disappointing, I must say. Let's just hope & pray they'll have the sense to release that full length version for the home market.
