Rise of the Apes!

I thought it would be more interesting than it was. Maybe, I wasn't in the mood to watch a bunch of swinging apes going crazy. At any rate, the movie was slow and a bit boring. The CG work got better later in the movie. James Franco not so much :(

Sometimes, the Hollywood box office translation don't work as well as it should. I'm not sure if Pierre Boulle (writer of the 1963 French Novel Planet of the Apes) would approve of this one.

Save the cha-ching, DVD is a better option.

Actor: James Franco
Director: Rupert Wyatt (Escapist)
