The trailers made this movie look laughably bad. I was expecting the next Battlefield Earth. What I got was arguably the best blockbuster of the year.
Apes has a moving, personal story that rivals any drama, and an epic finale worthy of any popcorn flick. It’s a film that taps into our fears of today. It challenges the innate arrogance mankind has towards animals. And a powerhouse CGI performance by Andy Serkis seals it as one of my favourite films of the year.
Come back tomorrow for #9, winner of the “Oh Jesus, I had Knots in my Stomach for the first 15 minutes, Waiting for It to Happen” award.
