Unexpected gem!

Rating: 9/10 (2 October 2011)

I have to be honest to say that when I first heard of this movie I was not exited for it. Usually when directors try to relive an old movie franchise they usually turn in to mediocre screenplays.
This movie took me by surprise though. It is actually a very good movie! The CGI is very well done and the cast is really well and intelligently done. The characters are believably done and you experience their emotions well during the movie.
In my opinion this is a very good prologue to the planet of the apes. I really hope there is going to be another movie in this franchise, i will be looking forward to it.
