Exellent film with a greatstory line, lots of exellent forshadowing for the next film. A true pleasure to watch

The best CGI effects ever in a very plausible plot about how apes will overtake humans in the future. If you wait to see the movie on your TV at home, you'll truly miss out on one of the best cinematic experiences.

Not what I expected - a total hidden jem. The movie is more drama than action, but it is extremely well written and the FX are very tasteful. 4 stars.

this movie was entertaining enough. Not great and not bad.

The movie was excellent except the end left you a bit unsatisfied...not a cliffhanger but certainly not a conclusion. It just seems like rather than finish this movie they figured we will happily wait for the sequel.

A nice reboot of the original series. I found some parts to be a little bit of a stretch (ie. what are so many apes doing in one city at a time?). It was also weird to see the protagonists destroying the human race. Other than these little oddities, the movie was a fairly decent action flick.

I really enjoyed this movie... much more than the last POTA movie, and eagerly await the next instalment!

The apes are more interesting than the humans in this movie, but overall I was surprised by how good this was. Its the little touches that do it -- the daughter of the neighbour looking on as a chimp attacks her dad, the leaves falling from the trees. Camp done well.

A great prequal. The CGI is very well done, and all actors present their rolls in great fashion. This movie really lets the audience get into the beginnings of the Planet of the Apes. I hope the next one will be just a s well done.
