Official Crimefile review of, Rise of the Planet of the Apes

Los Angeles, CA—I was recently lamenting the lack of films worth the admission price in recent Hollywood history. Amazingly a very entertaining film is currently in our local theaters, Rise of The Planet of the Apes.

I won’t spoil this with much information other than to say you will be rooting for the apes over most of the humans you will meet in this adventure.

The entire cast is solid and believable in their respective roles.

Let me predict that Apes will take best Picture and a bunch of other awards at the Kodak Theater this year. I predict Andy Serkis will take the Best Actor Oscar for his role of Caesar, a precocious and loveable chimpanzee.

Paul, a couple of those scenes were straight out of the North Ave. beach this past summer. Reminded me of what also happened up in Milwaukee. I wonder if that's where the writer got their ideas?

Hell,the movie people just need to come to #007 during the summer and get some great footage.They could film guerilla style with a digital RED camera like in District 9.
