Great movie

Rating: 8/10 (15 August 2011)

Really well done. Had zero expectations coming into this and was very happy after watching it. James Franco did a phenomenal job convincing me he is more than a flash in the pan. The depth of characters(mainly Caesars and Franco's character) had me vested in both of them and watching the whole time. The latter half of the movie over a little too quick for my tastes but all in all it was a great watch. My woman had some issues with the subject of animal testing but really loved this movie for what it was. A step above a popcorn flick but a step under a movie with too much depth, this hit everything for me. Again very happy after watching this as I had not expected much from it and walked away wanting to revisit the other films. Best of the planet of the apes series by far.
