The main character, an ape named Caesar, is the offspring of another primate used in drug testing to find a cure for Alzheimer\u2019s disease.<\/p>\n<p>Will Rodman, played by James Franco, wants to use Caesars mother to demonstrate how the drug increases brain function but an unwise decision on the part of the researchers leads to her demise.<\/p>\n<p>A decision is made to kill all the primates in the study but Caesar is saved.\u00a0 Without giving the story line away, eventually all the primates are exposed to the brain functioning enhancing drug and this does not bode well for human.<\/p>\n<p>The battle that ensues between the humans and primates is thrilling and action-packed, which was great because the first part of the movie is rather slow.<\/p>\n<p>Other actor\u2019s in the movie include, John Lithgow, who plays Will\u2019s father and Frieda Pinto of Slumdog Millionaire fame.\u00a0 The movie ranked number one over the weekend grossing over $27 million and beating out \u201cThe Help\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>This movie is a must-see for all those who loved the other Planet of the Ape movies.\u00a0 Just be prepared for a riveting tall of how human manipulation of science and natural selection can backfire.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By: Ernest F.
