An incredibly pleasant surprise

Rating: 9/10 (12 July 2014)

This movie is great. It truly is. Even though many people like it, I still don't think it gets enough praise. It is the third reboot of The Planet of The Apes series and it not only breaths new life into the series, but it has an incredibly interesting social message.
It's entertaining, very menacing, fun, and sad all at the same time. A great combination
The acting from James Franco and Freido Pinto are solid and John Lithgow is very memorable. Andy Serkis sets the standard for motion capture acting and is amazing.
This is a short review, but this movie has so much too offer and is just great on every level.
See this movie and it's sequel. Equally great.
