As with all presentations, there are promoters as distracters.

The product has a sound story. The story stands alone, or if you will be a prequel to the ape series. There was very little preaching of ideologies and they stuck to the poor pitiful ape finally can get his revenge theme. Someone joker could not help himself and hand to write in the line "Get your damn dirty paws off me!"

Anyway, apes get to be the lab animal of choice for a drug that is supposed to cure Alzheimer's. The drug gets out of hand the ape gets out of hand and then there is the evil bureaucratic bully who gets out of hand. No one is a good guy in this film, not even our newly liberated apes.

Now where did I see this film before, oh yeah; take out the ape add a dog, and voila Based on a novel by Dean Koontz.
