...There's no stage in KA, but it's great theater. Explain. OK. This martial-arts extravaganza from Cirque du Soleil (playing at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas) is performed on, and above, two revolving platforms. As the artists cavort on a boat, or fight a battle, or swing through a forest scene, the ground is literally moving under their feet. As conceived by Robert Lepage, the innovative Canadian writer-director, the $165 million action musical is unquestionably the most technically complex show ever devised, achieving marvels Broadway is too timid and strapped even to dream of. The first...
World music doesn't have a reputation for fun, and Amadou & Mariam, the self-proclaimed Blind Couple of Mali, might not seem the likeliest candidates to rock the boat. But a) they wear the coolest shades in the history of sightlessness, and b) they have partnered with Spanish-French producer Manu Chao, whose interest in multiculturalism stops at every country's best pop hooks.

Over the course of the boat ride, Driscoll and Darrow fall in love. Very quietly, owing to Jackson’s inability to write romantic dialogue. Which gives Driscoll a motivation to become an action hero after Darrow is kidnapped by the crreeeppy “28 Days Later”-esque natives of Skull Island as a sacrifice for their God, Kong, who is computer generated version of computer captured movements of Andy Serkis—the same process used to make Serkis into Gollum in “Lord of the Rings.” After many action...
