Rise of the Planet of the Apes

Drama
4 stars
Very good story of Caesar the ape: his upbringing and what went wrong. James Franco stars the scientist devising a cure for Alzheimer’s, motivated by his father who is suffering from the disease (John Lithgow). Mostly it is the story of Caesar the lab ape who neither fits into the human world nor the ape world because of his higher intelligence. I thought the story was well done, and the the apes themselves were very realistic. I liked it.
