King Kong-ot, a hatalmas gorillát egy titkos kutatócsoport mesterségesen életben tartja, és minden erejükkel azon fáradoznak, hogy egy új szívet hozzanak létre a sérült óriás számára. Amikor végre sikerül elkészíteniük a félelmetes méretű szervet, nincs is már másra szükségük, mint egy megfelelő donorra, aki a beültetéshez szükséges vért biztosítja. Erre a legmegfelelőbb alany az az ugyancsak gigantikus méretekkel rendelkező nősténygorilla, melyet egy vadász nemrégiben fogott be Borneóban. Így aztán, a hatalmas gorilla nem pusztán újjászületik, hanem társat is talál. (Film Mánia)

This sequel has been widely spat upon, but in my opinion it is no worse than Guillermo's film, which is a decade older, and to which it is a direct sequel. I might even say it's slightly better because it's more fun. The idea that Kong somehow survived the fall doesn't strike me as bad at all, even the discovery of his (future) mate doesn't bother me. The plot sometimes teeters on the edge of (unintentional?) parody, when we watch monkey and human courtship in the forest, or when the title character eats crocodiles, but sometimes it makes fun quite deliberately ("I've never seen such brown and big eyes."), and that's quite pleasant. Surprisingly, the film has quite good momentum, the operation was shot perhaps even thrillingly and several special effects scenes are great, especially Kong's showdown with the two hunters.___P.S. If anything deserves to be spit upon, it's definitely the domestic DVD release with its hideously grainy and oddly cropped and squashed image. Yuck.

"King Kogn lives" is a continuation that is actually not a continuation, but a remake, because the overall storyline is exactly the same. It's just even worse than the first film, even more foolish and with such unnecessary scenes that are not even very logical, that you will wish it all ended already. And fortunately, it does end and you are literally forced to feel sad. A bad product of American production that almost degraded the entire idea of King Kong.
