A good example of how to reboot a movie series

Rating: 8/10 (11 October 2018)

Rise of the Planet of the Apes is a good example of how to reboot a movie series. It plays off the original idea, but it has a unique storyline along with plenty of homages. And even though the plot loses its way for a bit in the middle of the film, the conclusion is quite impressive -- even with the obviously animated primates. This film has invigorated this franchise once again.
