Actors: James Franco,
Freida Pinto, John Lithgow, Brian Cox, Tom Felton, and Andy Serkis
Rating: 8 out of 10, I
gave this another chance since I enjoyed the recently released sequel. I was
struck once again by the dominance of Andy Serkis even though he’s submerged by
layers and layers of computer programming.
A lot of acting is in the eyes and the gestures and those are all
his. Franco as a brilliant
microbiologist is a huge stretch but it helps to have Freida hanging around. I’ll watch anything Lithgow does and he’s perfect
as the Alzheimer dad struggling to hang on to his humanity. Great action and a film that leaves you believing
apes can really talk.
MVP: Serkis as Caesar
rules, best actor in film
