Naomi Watts was as beautiful as ever. The core of the plot was as I had known it over the years...with that bitter ending...but this version is so colorful, elaborate, and meticulously developed that I think it's the best rendition of this story. Some of the scenes did drag a bit...like Adrian Brody's car chase in the streets of New York....and some of the monster fights (but they were really entertaining!)....
In a silly way, Jack Black's character reminded me of Bob Cappa....how he braved the sight of monstrous dinosaurs, men killing each other, and fighting for survival....all the expense of getting a shot. Bob used to say that if you're war pictures aren't any good, its because you weren't close enough....(or something like that ;) ).
