Rise Of The Planets Of The Apes Review

Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes, the highly anticipated prequel to the famous "Planet Of The Apes" series, was sure to be a major blockbuster and money grabber.. But was it really worth it? My answer: Yes, for sure yes!


With a star studded cast including James Franco (127 Hours) , Freida Pinto (Slumdog Millionaire) & The Famous Tom Felton (Harry Potter), this movie proved to have more than visual effects up its sleeve. The acting was really well done, it really seemed real, considering the apes were all animation.

Tom Felton... Who plays Draco Malfoy in Harry Potter did a fairly good job, although he did play a similar or almost identicial person as Draco Malfoy, only those fans would be able to point out the differences (Including me).

The visual effects- oh the visual effects, they were incredible, it is from the team that did Avatar, the apes looked SO real and at some points were frightening as well. This would've been great in 3D because at some points it seems like some things are popping out at you!

Another thing, the scenery. I loved it when they showed the shots in the park and of the apes climbing the trees, that was really cool.

The best thing this movie did, it made you see the world though the Apes eyes, it made you see the world through human eyes. The movie didn't take a side, it made you choose to take a side, with the humans or the apes, not much movies can do that and I can say that this one did that successfully.

Overall this is a great film, not just for fans of the previous series, but for people looking to find a good movie, especially one with good action. This prequel is sure to be one that can't miss. B+
