The Mighty Peking Man Ratings & Reviews
Mister Arn
May 21, 2025
"The Mighty Peking Man" offers a twist on the King Kong tale, introducing a blonde Tarzan-esque female lead with a knack for taming wild creatures. The narrative pivots to a melodramatic romance between the woman and the beast, with the true villain being a money-hungry promoter. While the film leans on special effects like models and gorilla costumes, it remains engaging.
Cinapse
Ed Travis
Even for its time this wasnt executed with particularly effective special effects, and the cheapness and blatant knock-off quality didnt help me get engaged in the flimsy story being told.
Film Frenzy
Matt Brunson
The King Kong template is one that naturally lends itself to tragedy, but the consequences here are downright startling.

Best suited for B-movie fans who can overlook all the faults.

Very bad but very funny movie.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
I am awarding Mighty Peking Man three stars, for general goofiness and a certain level of insane genius.

Michael Dequina
Before the big third act smash-o-rama, the audience is treated to some of the most unintentionally hilarious footage ever committed to film.
