These are some comments I wrote about the film. As you can see, I pretty much agree with you on this one :)
King Kong", as many have noted, is largely an exercise in Jackson's tendency towards excess. It is FAR too long, desperately in need of editing and has a screenplay that proves Jackson should stop writing with his wife. They clearly are not comfortable editing each other. Several of these characters are developed, but pointless including "Jimmy," "Baxter" and most of the ship's crew.
As in any Jackson film, surrender to the technical wizardry is inevitable but even in this film I found myself questioning areas I seldom notice. For example, listen to the sound mix during the jungle scenes. The "beats" are frequently off and the sound mix uneven. Likewise, there is a "clang" when Watts, at the end, is on top of the "Empire State Building" that actually made me laugh.
Ultimately, surrender didn't happen for me. "King Kong" ended up being a film I respected but didn't enjoy. "King Kong" is a joy to observe, and an often overwhelming sensory experience yet the lack of clarity, excessiveness, pointless plot points and intrusive, inappropriate score combined to turn a 25-foot beast of a film into a mere monkey on my back.

You probably missed the Heart of Darkness argument being mad in the film, namely that the further away from the city the actress gets the wilder she becomes and Kong is the embodiment of her primal spirit protecting her froma world that just as soon see her taking off her clothes in a burlesque theater than acting in a movie.
