And to counter not only 2ndBreffest's criticisms but also those of Lindsay in the (frankly overwrought) video essay series above, I should include Chris Hartwell's much more succint (albeit apologetic) breakdown here.

And really, I must ask, how cynical have we as filmgoers have become, that we can't see through a bit of fluff and empathize with a group of exiles wanting to return to their lost home?!

Jackson's King Kong has more blatant CGI and worst pacing, and yet most people seem to like that film in spite of those flaws.
