Aug 5th RISE OF THE PLANET OF THE APES (SCOTIABANK THEATRE AVX)

RISE OF THE PLANET OF THE APES is a nice modern take on how the apes took over the planet earth but it is only the beginning. Unfortunately, for the story its the most exciting part. For the movie however, it could have been a lot more exciting. It is a very enjoyable movie and the apes do not look fake at all. There are a couple of places where it is a little unbelievable though. The strength and sizes of the Chimpanzees are a little exaggerated and there is a little poetic licence taken at the beginning. Would have loved to seen more about Caesars struggle with his discovery of not being Human and feelings of being different from the other apes.
