amazingly terrible movie

Rating: 1/10 (5 August 2011)

I have to say as a prelude to writing this that I have never really felt compelled to write a review for a movie before, but I felt it necessary to make up for the absolute trauma I experienced in watching this movie. So, you've been warned. Now to the review.
The CGI was quite well done, but also exceedingly, painfully obvious that the chimps were not chimps at all. The CGI was the high point of the movie, it was all downhill from there.
The acting was woeful, but I guess this stemmed in large part from the absolutely horrifically done screenplay... where all of the characters were gross parodies of their counterparts in real life.
The science of the movie was a parody, the motivations of the actors unbelievable, the relationship that was supposedly a 6 year one was completely unbelievable and about the only solid relationship that I could actually perceive in the whole movie was the part where the chimp had an intimate relationship between his mouth and one of the suburban bully parodies fingers.
Reading the reviews before this (all glowing), I can only say that I'm going to wait some more time before seeing a film next time so as to avoid the cooked up story tales that they have had to tell in order to vote this film as 7.6 - a poor 1 star. Worst movie that I have seen in my living memory.
