Even good! if you were not a fan before

Posted by: CyberdyneSys from downunder on 01/19/2013After seeing several hundreds of movies in my lifetime, I've only been part of a tiny select few that got an ovation afterwards. This is one of those few! Even if you were not a big fan before, you will be. It does a wonderful job of explaining how Planet of Apes become. I don't want to reveal to much for you but it certainly does a great job linking it all together. A must see.

Posted by: xomegax1 from Fort Wayne, IN on 02/28/2012The special effects in this movie are simply mind-blowing!! Finally, we have a movie that gives a plausible beginning to the story many of us saw when we watch the original Planet of the Apes long ago.

Posted by: Wishkid from Florida on 01/17/2012This really a good movie is more credible how this Ape thing started. Kind of slow in the begging but is part of understading the movie all the action comes tower the end great movie overall.

Posted by: jehovah from Fontana. Ca on 12/20/2011I loved the theme of the movie and the stages of growth of Cesear. I think this would have also been a very good 3D movie. I jumped at a couple of the scenes on the standard dvd.
