This movie was alright. I agree with @karibear. The special effects and CGI were seamless and it def blended well. You see the CGI apes as real actors and actresses (watch "The Congress" for a good perspective on CGI these days). But the plot I feel was rushed, everything was going well, fine and dandy until war popped off. Once the apes came into the city and started war, it was no better than a bruce lee flick from the 70's 80's mixed with some shoot em up b rated movie. The apes looked good until they started riding horses, that looks so awkward to me. The whole reason I like "The Rise of the Planet of the Apes" was because it explained, well; everything. I was hoping this would do the same, but it gave me more of a primitive Avatar meets Survivor. I gave this a 6 because it still kept me entertained, it just really let me down after watching "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" which they did so well with. This movie was alright, but DEF rushed. CGI is cool and all, but whats a movie without a full plot?
