Amazing...Must read...Excellent film!

Rating: 10/10 (8 December 2011)

I have only just watched this film and I was amazed by the whole idea of it. To be honest, now I think about it, I'm surprised it has not happened yet, with all the research and tests we do on the poor animals. In my opinion we should let the animals be free in their own undisturbed environment, however, looking at the world now and what it has become, I do believe this will never happen. Back to the point, as the film progressed I slowly started to feel a bond with Caesar (the main ape) and feel what he feels and understand why he does what he did. All his life he was controlled one way or another, even though he was cared for by 'Will Rodman' for the majority of his life, it was still captivity. Once he reached adulthood, he was taken to a enclosed ape zoo, not open to public, where everything changed. He slowly grew his anger, due to being introduced to the ape way of life for the first time and coming into conflict with the alpha male and whilst caged being mistreated by the animal 'carer'. Using his intelligence, he planned a way to become the dominant ape and plan an escape out of the enclosed environment and get to a place called 'Red Woods' where 'Will Rodman' took him often as a young ape so he could climb and be free. After all his mistreatment by humans, he still chose not to harm humans and commanded others not to as well, as his only goal was to be free with his fellow apes, as this is only what humans want, to be free.I would advise anyone to see this film as it shows close relations between Humans and Apes and what could happen in the not so long future.
