This Movie in 3D takes it to another Dimension like nothing you’ve ever seen before and for $10 it’s worth it.

This movie, along with the action, expresses the differences that have existed in our civilization throughout time.

This was by far one of the greatest film of the Planet Of The Apes saga.And the blu Ray comes in a nice metal pack.

A worthy follow up to the newly rebooted franchise! Andy Sirkis as Caesar is fantastic!!!

Andy Sekis reprises his role as Caesar and does so masterfully. You will not be disappointed in this tale as it picks up where rise of the planet of the apes left us. The world is worse off due to the havoc ensued by the apes at the end of rise. If you enjoyed the last one in the trilogy, do not miss this one as it carefully weaves in new characters and builds upon the old ones. If nothing less, watch it for the scenes with Caesar.

The trilogy is one of my favorites, I am a steelbook collector, this one was a must for my collection, if you like this movie or haven't watch it yet, don't think to much and buy it, it worth every penny. I purchased all three movies in the steelbook version, no 4K but still looks amazing you hardly notice the difference to be honest.

I got all 3 Planet of the Apes movies on sale. I didn't go see them in the theater because I didn't think I would like them. I was wrong. This is the second movie. It takes place several years after the first movie. Most humans have been wiped out by a plague called the Simian flu. The ones left in California are trying to get power back to the city. But they have to go through the Apes territory. And that causes conflict!

This trilogy of apes movies are done with great writing acting and direction not to mention excellent motion capture and digital effects. DTS 7.1 sound is very immersive and impressive. Andy Serkis is king of captivating acting thru motion capture. What an artist. BRAVO!

It's always about power. Man has always sought power – power over his environment, power over the beasts of the Earth, and power over other men and women. Power is our curse. And the lust for power is often our undoing. Power is very much the strongest theme in Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, and it's a human craving for electric power that brings them into conflict with the apes. Ten years have passed since the events of Rise of the Planet of the Apes, and much of humanity has been wiped out by the simian flu. There's a small colony of humans living in the ruins of San Francisco, and a grop of them heads across the bridge to investigate whether they can get a dam working again to turn the power back on. They come across a colony of apes, led by Caesar (Serkis), who have not encountered humans for a decade. The humans seek access to the dam, and Caeser is keen to cooperate and avoid any conflict. But his deputy Koba (Kebbell) hates uhumans, doesnt' trust them and wants nothing to do with them. An dthere are those on the human side who see the apes as nothing but animals to be swept out of the way. As you would expect, conflict ensues. This is a very smart, tense, engaging and exciting sequel to 2011's surprising Rise of the Planet of the Apes. In the 10 years since the events of the first film, Caeser has established an ape civilisation. Most of the apes know sign language; a few can speak; and some can even write words. The humans had been thought to have completely died out, and Caesar – who now has a family of his own – and the rest of the apes are initially wary and suspicious of the humans' motives. But Caeser is highly intelligent, and sees that war with the humans would lead to the deaths of many apes, and so decides that helping the humans is the logical way to go. But Koba – who suffered at the hands of humans when he was a lab animal – wants nothing but revenge. And there are those too in the human camp – chief among them Dreyfus (Oldman) and Carver (Acevedo) – who believe the apes are standing in the way of humanity rebuilding its society. Much has been made of the motion-capture technology used to create the apes for this film, and it is truly impressive. The Planet of the Apes films of the 1970s used actors in (very good) latex masks to play the apes, and we still have actors in masks here - although these masks are made of pixels, not rubber and glue. But most importantly, its the actors' performances behind those pixel masks that truly bring these characters to life. And the two standout performances are from Serkis (of course) and Kebbell, who are utterly convincing as the simians, bringing real intelligence and emotion to their characters. You can see it in the eyes. Serkis especially is perfect; as we know, he's probably the world's foremost exponent of performance capture, and while watchng him as Caesar, you don't even notice the technology at work. It's one of the great acting performances of the year, and Serkis truly deserves an Oscar nomination for his work. What's also perfect with this film is that the mo-cap tech has been taken out of the studio - all the action takes place on location, which adds another layer of reality to the story. It's a solidly-directed effort from Reeves, who also brought us the terrific Cloverfield and the so-so remake Let Me In. In Dawn, he gives us a somewhat bleak tale told on an epic scale, aided by a tightly-written, intelligent script. And as well as power, there are themes of family, survival, leadership and what it means to be human running throughout. It's not perfect – there are a couple of plot holes, and there's also a lack of female characters (just one on each side) – but it's still one of the best summer blockbusters we've seen in quite some time. It's a visually stunning and compelling film full of big ideas and wonderful performances.

Out of all 3 of the newest Planet of the Apes movies this one is by far my favorite. I saw it when it first came out and loved. Every time I would try to get it on Blu Ray somewhere it was sold out but I finally got it so now I can enjoy it at home

These get better and better and I think the sequels could be unlimited as we can take bonds between us lives on eternity. Each one has specific lines on coexistence! We should all look and listen then act to show reality of respect is possible

Some say the plot on this movie was not as good as the prequel reboot, "RIse of The Planet of The Apes" Starting James Franco. It would have been a good movie with James on this movie, sadly not! Overall watching experience, still a good buy for movie!

I enjoyed the remakes with Wahlberg, Franco and then this one. These movies were well done and great to have them offered in 4K format. Hoping that I can find the first one with Wahlberg being sold in 4K (still haven't seen that one out yet).

Bought this on sale and needed the Blu-Ray format for my new large screen TV. Movie is well made and tells the Planet Of The Apes story from the ape perspective. The actor playing the lead ape does an exception job.

Collecting every movie was getting out of hand. Especially once my DVDs became obsolete after my VHS did the same. I love the alternate art and collectibility of the Steelbooks. Recommended.

To be honest I bought it by mistake and already own this movie. This is a good series, hard to say which single movie is best; It's really just one long story, all pretty good.
