Review of Rise of the Planet of the Apes (2011) by Hfahmy — 31 Aug 2011

A classic tale of of a phenomenon going beyond control, apes this time. Driven by mistreatment and feeling of injustice, a medically made intelligent, lab treated ape leads the revolt against humans. The acting credit goes this time to Ceasar, the apes leader who excels at eyes and face acting, thanks to human technology that makes this kind of ape puppets.

For slightly less than two hours, this movie hardly gives the feeling of boredom. The scenario is not that strong specially at the finale which is quite non-convincing and quick in proportion with the lengthy tragic and hectic course of events.
