rise-of-the-planet-of-the-apes-dvdForget Marky Mark and Tim Burton’s attempt to breathe new life into the Planet of the Apes franchise. The new film from director Rupert Wyatt is centered on the beginnings of the Planet of the Apes by focusing on a single scientist (James Franco) and his obsession with stopping the advancement of Alzheimer’s in his father (John Lithgow).

Will Rodman’s (Franco) experiments lead him into genetic manipulation of chimpanzees, but a violent outburst in a single subject in front of investors leads to the entire project being shelved. Unwilling to let his work die, Will saves a single chimp and continues his work privately.

Here he becomes the leader of a monkey rebellion. (Trust me, its not as ridiculous as it sounds.)
