Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes

I actually really enjoyed this one. On paper this seems like a totally pointless sequel (or prequel) and I was expecting some mindless CGI-action with bland characters. I'm glad I was wrong. I was amazed at how "human" the ape character was, considering that it was all cgi and with no dialogue. The scenes between John Lithgow and James Franco were also quite touching.

I dunno, I just really liked this one. I got the same warm fuzzy feeling I got when I first saw Jurassic Park when it came out. This is not a masterpiece by any means, but as far as blockbusters go, this is one of the more entertaining ones i've seen.
