(2011) Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes SCIENCE-FICTION

Contains all of the ingredients what one can expect from an 'ape rising' movie which is supposed to be a prequel to a "Planet Of The Apes" movie. The CGI ape played by Andy Serkis is unconvincing by watching it on regular DVD on HD tv and the reason why is that when he played Gollum in Peter Jacksons "Lord Of The Rings" films his character had been blended with the background along with his character- in this film nothing was fleshed in the background along with his ape character to convince viewers that it was not a CGI ape- at least to me anyway. The other thing that is bothersome is that because I'm so accustomed with makeup apes and so forth, that CGI is soon going to be a major replacement to what films used to be before meaning that as long as a film put in some real acting in it that viewers should be able to tolerate this CGI- it's becoming a trend.
