Rise of the Planet of the Apes - what did you think?

I have not yet seen it, but possibly will not as seem to enjoy the first one best, 99% of the time..don't often see seconds or thirds.

I haven't even watched the original, so I'm not planning on seeing the sequel.

The original, starring the late, GREAT Mr Charlton Heston, was voted as the movie with THE best ending, EVER!

Have seen all, up to & including remake of 'Planet of the Apes'.
Best actors in that were Tim Roth & the late Michael Clarke Duncan.
Charlton Heston was in a 'cameo' role, uncredited, as Tim Roth's character's father. The gun Heston gave to Roth was the gun Heston had used in his 1968 'Planet of the Apes' role as Taylor.

Nothing beats THE 1968 Original with Charlton Heston!

The scene where he tells the ape to 'get your stinking paws off me' was extra vocally interesting as he was, in real life, recovering from a sore throat which made him sound perfectly 'raspy', as he was recovering from a 'reel' sore throat in movie!
