I like the original series of the planet of the apes, however, this one is a copy & paste of the 1973 battle for the planet of the apes. Gary oldman is not an actor, he does not know how to act!. They should have a newer story with better actors.

Rise of the Planet of the Apes is a firmly delivered film about a chimpanzee who acquires human intelligence and sentiments from an experimental drug. It's a powerful movie that has great special and visual effects and acting that makes you connect deeply. There is also some fantastic action in the later part of the movie. This is one of the best films of 2011.
