Brownlow's mesmerizing look at Cooper is itself an adventure story of the first order.

"I'm King Kong" moves at a brisk pace, and if some of the Cooper yarns may have been stretched a bit by the years, his story will make movie fans nostalgic for the days when a guy like Cooper could take a chance on a film like "King Kong."

Something of a letdown.... That said, there are still plenty of intriguing tidbits here for those brushing up on their history in advance of Kong-mania.
