Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes

Evolution gets a jump start with the latest re-adaptation of a classic Apes movie with 20th Century Fox's Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes.
In Rise scientist Will Rodman tries to develop a cure for Alzheimer's.  Testing chimpanzees, he is surprised and delighted when the primates intelligence levels rise to human levels.

One of the test monkey's baby, Caesar, is orphaned, so Will decides to adopt him and raise him as a human.  After an altercation Caesar is taken away to live in a primate facility.  As his intelligence grows so does his distain for being treated as an animal prisoner.  He revolts and as the apes new leader he bestows upon them intelligence using the same procedure Will tested on chimpanzees.

The results begins the end for humans as the dominating species and the first step to the Planet Of The Apes.

Using cutting edge motion capture, Rise brings new life to digitized primates.  The action is fast, furious and primal as human battles ape in a war that will determine the fate of each species.

Blu-ray/DVD/DigitalCopy extras include deleted scenes,  several featurettes, commentaries, concept art, trailers and more.  It's enough to go 'ape" over!
