The weight it carries is evident, so it doesn't just deliver an epic plot, it feels that it is doing that, in every word and scene. It is not a bad film by any means, and there is a lot to like about it, even if a lot of this is what it could have been rather than what it is. The rest of the cast are the same – the humans seems overly labored while the apes are generally better. Performances from Serkis and Kebbell are both very good, and it is shame therefore that Clarke is as stiff as a board and Oldman mostly wasted with little to actually do. In terms of the technical side of things, it is hard to fault the film, and the motion-capture performances really feed back into the effects to produce more than just impressive computer generated effects.
It provides plenty of good moments but again there is the constant sense of importance and darkness about it – so there is nothing that really rivals the Golden Gate Bridge sequence for spectacle and tension. When the action comes, it carries this same weight. Tim Burton’s attempt to reboot the Planet Of The Apes franchise is regarded as a catastrophic failure. Travis was among the soldiers of Alpha-Omega, working under Colonel McCullough during the Human-Ape War. Travis served as one of Colonel McCulloughs Alpha-Omega soldiers. This robs it of flow and naturalism, both of which it could have done with. Travis was a character who appeared in War for the Planet of the Apes. The problem is not that it does this, but that it carries it all too heavily, producing a rather ponderous tone that sees the delivery imbued with too much weight, with all the characters and every line seeming to be aware of the import which it has. The base elements of the plot are all well and good, with a narrative that expands on war, peace, trust, fear and aggression in a way that balances the apes and humans pretty well. Science fiction action thriller film directed by Rupert Wyatt and starring Andy Serkis, James Franco, Freida Pinto, John Lithgow, Brian Cox, Tom Felton, and David Oyelowo.
TV TROPES RISE OF THE PLANET OF THE APES SERIES
As the title suggests, this is the point where the Apes start to develop rather than just survive, and as such it holds a key point in the series unfortunately this is something that the film very much feels and as a result it carries itself much more seriously than it can bear. Movies like Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes 2011 Movie. When a group of men ventures into the woods looking for an old dam in the hope of getting power to their community, it tests trust and loyalty within both camps. Meanwhile Caesar has established a community deep in the woods, founded off the survivors of the battle on the Golden Gate bridge. The plot jumps quite some time ahead, to find mankind surviving in small bands following the outbreak of a virus around a decade ago. I had enjoyed the first film in what I guess is the modern version of the PotA franchise, so I was quite looking forward to this second film.
