The Apes Did Indeed Rise

Overall I liked RISE OF THE PLANET OF THE APES but I do think it tries to cram too much drama AND Sci-Fi into such a short opening act - it does this well but you can sense that the story is being rushed. But it is the 3rd act that makes it all worth it. I've heard criticism on the CGI and I agree, it's not perfect, but it's still incredible how far CGI has come and exciting to see how far it will go. It wasn't quite the zombie-movie-with-apes film that I wanted, but a sequel to this prequel would be where the real fun begins! I would almost want to write a spec for the sequel (but I'm busy writing other scripts at the moment).
