    The Rise of the Planet of the Apes (2011) 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. The genesis of the iconic and legendary film Planet of the Apes (1968)! James Franco… man the guy is so hot he can sell an inverted crucifix to the pope. Undeniably one of the “in demand” actors in modern cinema. The guy’s got the looks and he can act. Now that that’s out of the way we can talk about the film and the spectacular effects. The Apes are the stars here, fuck all the humans. Not including the wonderful effects team that brought this film together and displayed their talent. Caesar aka Andy Serkis (Gollum) stole the show! along with his CGI primal mates. I loved how the writers tied-up the “launch” and left the film open ended. Leaving room for a “possible” part 2. The story also has a Monkey Shines (1988) element to it. Seeing John Lithgow made my heart pitter patter. That crazy old man! And there were some surprises too Tom Felton gets what he deserves and Brian Cox = a strict douche again. They represented so many of us who take things for granted, being the proud race that we are. One day we too shall be humbled. The chaos and theory was admirable. The demise of the world may come in any form size or number (rise of the zombies, rise of the robots, rise of the aliens, rise of the apes etc.). Splendid production quality that does not disappoint. Funny thing: They ate cookies more than they did bananas! (was there even a banana?) SEE: The Greatest Movie Ever Sold (2011) to find out why. I do hope they make a (the rumored) sequel…

      THINK I’D LIKE TO SEE THIS MOVIE. NOT BECAUSE THERE’S JAMES FREAKING FRANCO IN IT. BUT BECAUSE JOHN JOE SAID SO. XD
