Good movie!

Rating: 8/10 (30 June 2017)

I was not surprised at what I found out of this movie, I always knew it was something rotten in America... So San Francisco is driven and controlled by monkeys now... Seriously speaking, it's a well-done, well-played, well filmed movie. It keeps you awake, catches your attention, it's thrilling. James Franco is convincing in the role, like the other actors too: John Lithgow, Brian Cox, Freida Pinto, David Oyelowo, Tom Felton, Jamie Harris, Tyler Labine. I do not agree with d_a_m_8 (United States). And I'm a fan of the old series myself. But from the old series, only the first film is an authentic value, "Planet of the Apes" (1968). The others are very weak. This new and unique "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" (2011) manages to be very exciting again, not even as the 1968 movie but close.
