Not worth the price of admission

Rating: 1/10 (6 October 2014)

I miss the old days -- when movies didn't have to rely so heavily on CGI and, instead, the screenwriters actually cared about things like character development. "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" doesn't have anything going for it -- not artistically, and certainly nothing creatively. And it doesn't bring anything new to the table. It's just more by-the-numbers slop tailor-made for teenagers and children. Nothing original about this movie, nothing new. If anything, it's a terrible insult and a mockery to the original franchise.
Go watch the original with Heston if you want to see a decent movie. It is far better than this unoriginal tripe.
