Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes

[Houston]

apes closely resemble black people and black people are lazy so therefore apes are lazy

/racism

One of the two ironies, is that this is one of the laziest, un-thought out "jokes" I've ever seen.

I get that Mark was on a future Planet the whole time, thats why the "HOLY" site was his original ships crash site....

But at the end when he gets in that little space ship and ends up crashing in DC at the "Lincoln monument," why the hell does everything look so close to the real DC (Marks DC). I mean one would think a world run by the apes would look totally different than what man came up with! Apes driving in police cars that look exactly like real life police cars WTF!

??????:davegrohl:???????

Here's my question. In the original and follow up movies, the results of the Ape Earth were from nuclear devastation, right? So why does this show the Apes turning the Earth into their Earth? Remember Heston's,"they blew it all up". And the sequel that had the underground nuke shit going on. Seems like a deviation from the original angle.

The pre-release buzz for this movie with the early screenings are calling this a surprise hit of the summer. Saying its a creative and well thought out prequel that stands on its own in the franchise.

How the hell is this a "surprise hit"?

Planet of the Apes franchise+A ton of CGI action+James Franco=money.

 

[Buzzman]

A lot of people thought when it was officially announced that it was going to be a disaster.

 

[Wrath]

Yeah BB this movie looks really good IMO. I'd like to see this and Captain America at the movies.

Heard Lithgow is on point in this movie.

Rise of the Planet of the Apes - FIRST REACTIONS

If there has been any film that was the underdog since it was first announced, it was "Rise of the Planet of the Apes". First, people mocked the decision to create CG apes instead of costumes & make-up. Then, people mocked the film's ungainly name (even though it is a clear nod to the previous films). And, for the most part, no one particularly asked for another POTA film, especially in the wake of Tim Burton's... um, abomination...

So, now that people have seen the film (which see its own release this friday), critics have chimed in. Thus far, the consensus seems to be that the film is smart, emotional, steeped in science-fiction, and exciting. The praise is drawn mostly to the visuals from WETA, Andy Serkis' performance as "Caesar", and the curious decision to have Caesar be the main character, and not necessarily the humans..... Let's take a look below, and see what critics have been saying through reviews & twitter...

I saw ROTPOTA at a press screening, and I wanted to cheer, but I had to restrain myself. I get the feeling they all wanted to do the same... I'll admit, I cried like 4 times in RISE OF THE PLANET OF THE APES. I have no shame. sh*t choked me up... And Andy Serkis? He gives one of the best performances of the year, hands down.

an overall successful film, with some great character work brought to the Apes, some mostly brilliant effects to bring them to life and a really great finale that makes you root for the apes and the downfall of the bastard humans.... Rise of the Planet of the Apes works as escapism and good storytelling. It's a tentpole with something on its mind other than just fan service.

RISE OF THE PLANET OF THE APES is really, really good. Really good... What's great about APES: the apes. They work, completely and totally. They are the heart and life of the film. The humans... less so.

Up there with some of the best franchise reboots; anyone seeing it, whether they're a fan of the previous movies or not, will leave it hoping it does well enough to warrant more.

What makes this work above and beyond its place in the franchise is that it would still be a completely satisfying picture even if there were no other films in the series. It works as a complete film, and it works in a way that is very, very difficult to pull off...

Technically, the film's great. Wyatt has a sharp eye for composition and he stages his scenes efficiently, leaving himself room to play certain moments for all they're worth. He picks his emotional beats to hammer home, and he pays them off...

This, however, is an example of a prequel moment, a turning point, that I never thought I really needed or wanted to see on film that turned out to be a pleasure, a smart and grown-up science-fiction thriller that honors the name it carries. Like "X-Men: First Class," this suggests a world I'd want to see more of, and it raises exciting storytelling questions that I hope Fox will answer, provided the audience turns out for this one. It's worth it, and it's exciting to see them get this property this right after almost fifteen years of toying with some of these story elements.

Despite narrative flaws, this is the most entertaining spectacle-adventure of the summer, boasting a splendid performance from Andy Serkis, this time as star.

The best movies you never see coming. Into the Age of Anxiety comes this redux of the familiar Planet of the Apes series which relies heavily on that familiarity as it charges forward into uncharted territory. That territory is part breathtaking technology, part human self-loathing for what we’ve done, who we’ve become and our own despairing hopelessness about our future, and part rumination of the animal within: it all vibrates and quakes in this, one of 2011′s best films.

I actually hope you're right, Bucs. I love Planet of the Apes franchise.

I saw this last night. For me, a very good amazing awesome perfect movie must have a couple of "WOW" moments. This movie had them. I was very impressed. If I didnt have to get home to my child, I would have bought another ticket right away and watched it again. 9/10

I say 9 cuz no movie is perfect, but I honestly dont know what they could have done to make this movie much better than it was. Im in love!

thanks to feeble minds and films like this we see more and more piss poor films like this instead of quality well made films. they are cheaper, have shit dialog, shit story and shit acting. But people go see them cause they see big explosions.

Im guessing you didn't go and see the movie. Theres exactly 1 explosion throughout. Most of it is character buildup.

 

[1ke]

Lol Maynard.

 

[LiquidLarry2GhostWF]

Surprise hit of the summer.

This was everything I hoped a film like this would be. All character build, little to no action.

Probably my favorite film of the year, thus far. I really really enjoyed it.
