Review: To sum it up, a very powerful film falling just short of being a masterpiece. However, the only flaw in the film is that the film could have been just a bit longer! I am really hoping for a directors cut because there should have been a few more character development scenes between father and son, boyfriend and girlfriend, and even Ape and Human. I felt the movie was paced a bit too quickly but nevertheless, still contains very fleshed out characters driven by excellent performances throughout, from Lithgow, to Franco, to Cox and especially by Andy Serkis.
Cesar is by far the best animated character in the history of cinema. His facial expressions tell it all! You feel his rage, his fear, and his child like innocence through his wonderfully animated eyes. Not only is the C.G.I. good, but the character is written very well in general. You will go through all of those emotions yourself as you witness his journey. All I can say is that I now know why I try to walk my dog without a leash as much as possible. This movie just confirmed it for me! Through the film, you will understand what Cesar is feeling and why. The invisible character of the film is humanity itself, and at times, feels like a study of human nature.
Plot wise, it is very well told. I thought there was nothing cheesy about the script, although not as intelligent as the original, but not dumb either. There is some science fiction in the film, and other than the experimental drug, there was some other surprising Science fiction plot elements in it too which might lead into the sequel; if there is one of course, and I think there will be.
For the skeptics who think the film would be cheesy seeing all the apes battle armed policemen then think again. I too, was a bit skeptical at first, wondering how the apes would defeat an entire police force, but when you watch the film your doubts would dissipate. Just remember the physical ability of apes and how powerful the apes are, and how much more powerful they would be if they had brains! The action was very good, but as good as it was, Id trade it in for more plot development. There were a bit too many plot jumps in the last 30 minutes, but all in all, it was directed very, very well. Coupled with a good score, mellow at times, but highly dramatic which heightens the tension. Speaking of tension, there is a lot of it in this film. If youre an animal lover like I am, then be warned; You will be in tears 30 seconds into the opening scene.
I also wanted to mention the original film even though its tough to compare the two. This is an origins story that actually makes the original better. The original was more about the plot than the characters and they each stand apart and alone with their own merits and flaws. It was nice to see a few homages to the old classic, and dont be surprised if you see a character from the original as well. I highly doubt this film will disappoint the fans of the original and TV series! It will have you climbing trees!
I thought Rise of the Planet of the Apes was interesting, it was a new type of thriller movie, and a smart one as well. After that it all went downhill. I saw 3 movies too many. Now I cannot bear to even watch this movie again, but, apparently there are still people out there that can enjoy a movie like this and I am glad they can.
The film is worth it to view. the film is so refreshing. It’s a curiously paced flick and suffers at times from astonishingly long exposition and poorly contrived story lines that seem to be added to no doubt cultivate the storyline rather than the full movie story that I wanted to see.
Rise of the Planet of the Apes is a genuinely great movie– disappointing summer aside. It’s more refreshing, perhaps, due to the fact that this season has been so lacking, but Rise of the Planet of the Apes easily deserves praise all on its own merits rather than by lack of good competition.
whoa what a good film. I was going to watch Rise of the Planet of the Apes in the theatre but rather I viewed it here for cost-free
I agree with you on Rise of the Planet of the Apes – the first half hour of it was great, actually. tailed off a bit towards end but still a way better film than it should have been
The film Rise of the Planet of the Apes is worth it to view. the movie is so fantastic.
I didn’t find it to long, it was at times a little too knowing and even self indulgent but I guess a film like that has to be! It makes my top ten of the year so far. Lets see if it stays there!

The film Rise of the Planet of the Apes is worth it to watch. the Rise of the Planet of the Apes is so phenomenal.

You will literally be watching Rise of the Planet of the Apes in no time at all should you just consume advantage of this site. Here is what is likely essentially the most component about this web site as opposed to all the others. Then, if you’re lucky enough to even find a place that says it is possible to truly watch Rise of the Planet of the Apes or watch Rise of the Planet of the Apes, you are heading to obtain something that appears like it was filmed with an iPhone…by someone with Parkinsons. Now, I know you will also be asking if you are heading to get to become some computer genius so that you can not merely watch the movie, but then burn it to a DVD. Don’t have a DVD burner? No problem. Obivously I’m talking in future tense just to prove a point, as I already watched the movie. They aren’t heading to charge you for every movie you desire to watch, that is great, since I’m also sure that Rise of the Planet of the Apes is not going being the only movie you might be ever heading to want to see. It is not the standard spam you see splattered all more than the web. Watch Rise of the Planet of the Apes now!

This flick was absolutely great. Already seen it three times. Loved the comics and this was the most satisfying adaptation I’ve ever seen mixed with the directors personal charm and tweaks. Rise of the Planet of the Apes was just beautiful to watch and so fun to be a part of as an audience. LOVED IT.
