Very good better than rise of the planet of the apes almost as good as dawn but just missing small things that made dawn better
I was fully involved in this movie right from the start, the characters, plot, incredible visuals and the full range of emotions on display, especially from the apes. So much to think about in terms of honesty, trust, betrayal, loyalty, familial bonds......all those characteristics and values we supposedly espouse as the superior human race. Of course, it was an allegory but the movie makes you also think about just how much animals in our "real" world think and feel and how we might look to them.
i thought it was the best planet of the apes, a bit long but very very good
Photography script even the computer generated images were spectacular. I too will be adding this movie to my collection.
This movie was a roller coaster of emotions! I did not realize it was two and a half hours long. It was so good I will be purchasing the DVD.
Movie was made to make people to think. I love the funny monkey. Once more humans were less caring than the monkeys.
hard to rate this one as I watch it late at a drive inn, it seem to be ok but their was Caesar and bad ape that only did the talking the other were apes was make typical monkey sounds as I didn't mine that in dawn of the planet of the apes but to have that in this was too much and the Colonel well that other story, most likely I would watch it again when I'm more awake but as I saw it at the drive inn I wasn't impress
The movie was slow in the beginning then picked up half way through. Lots of detail that you would only get if you've seen the original movie in the 70's. lots of Riverdale people in general were there
Like the original series the sequel is compelling because it permits us to vicariously view our own humanity through the eyes of apes.
This is a rare CG movie worthy of an academy award. The drama that was evoked was extraordinary. You honestly can not tell if the apes are CG, puppets, humans in suits or REAL! The quality is that good. There is nothing cheesy about this movie. It was my favorite of all of them.
