Audio 5/5
Picture 5/5
Extras 4/5

Starring: James Franco, Freida Pinto, John Lithgow, Tom Felton
Director: Rupert Wyatt

Rise Of The best Planet Of the Apes since the original back in 1968.

An origin story set in present day San Francisco, where man's own experiments with genetic engineering lead to the development of intelligence in apes and the onset of a war for supremacy.

As the movies' title says.....it really is the Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes. the movie starts out slow and introducing you to the characters and then introducing you to Caesar , the future leader of the Apes.
When an unfortunate incident happens involving Caesar and escaping into the neighbor hood, he is put into sanctuary of other apes. After being with other apes for the first time, Caesar wants to stay with them. And that leads to the eventual escape of all of the apes.

And the start of The Rise Of The Apes.

In the end Caesar speaks to Franco, whispers " Caesar is home"

Caesar is played by the wonderful Andy Serkis. He has a great eye for playing computer generated characters. He previously play Gollum in the Lord of the Ring series.

****I give the blu-ray release my best recommendation possible. This is one of my favorite movies this year.
