Brilliant

I was a bit worried about this as I was never a fan of Planet of the Apes. This is not Planet of the Apes. The story is convincing and well told and the acting is brilliant. The story will hold your attention and there's enough action if that's what you want.
Take time to watch the 'making of' bit on the dvd. Well worth a few minutes.
Engaging

Much better than I expected. Thought it would be predictable but the pace is just right and you feel for the chimp. CGI doesn't get in the way because the direction is so good. You just accept computer chimps and apes as part of the story even though sometimes the movements a re a little jerky.
Simply Awesome

One of the best films made in the past 5 years. Human characters are irrelevant so Pinto, Lithgow and Cox can be ignored. Serkis is the man. You know where the story is going, its all about how it gets there. Great credit to the franchise
Monkey business

This is a much better film than it might have been - an intelligent script and very good special effects (even if a bit over-reliant on CGI), makes this an entertaining and intelligent blockbuster.
