I have yet to see any of these newer incarnations. I hear good things about this one - so will try to catch it in the theater.

Very cool movie and a must watch at the theater. The wife and I both enjoyed it with her rating it a 9 over my 8 rating. Trish said she would have given it a 10 but she didn't like the ending. Mostly because I think she just wanted it to keep going! It is so cool the things they can do nowadays. A couple of the parts actually gave me chills.

it was a great movie, very dark but so well done. Nathan and I, with Amy and my daughter in law Kira went on the Thursday night showing. It was a little long.. but as some have pointed out, any movie you start watching at 10pm seems long. LOL.

GREAT special effects. Fantastic acting and a pretty cool story line too. Go see it on the big screen!!!

Can you see this movie without having seen the other earlier ones?

There was only one before this and from what I know a lot of time has passed between the films and I think you would be fine just seeing this one if you haven't seen the previous film. The other one you might be thinking of was with Mark Wahlberg and has no connection to this series and is frankly best forgotten.

I saw the Markie Mark one - the only good thing about that one was Charlton Hestons cameo.. :)

Hey, just saw this movie today and it was very, very good. Good story, solid acting, and the visuals and apes - unbelievable. So impressive what they can do now. A lot of emotion in this film too. Go see it!
