Dawn of the Planet of the Apes (2014)
Director: Matt Reeves
Stars: Gary Oldman, Keri Russell, Andy Serkis, Kodi Smit-McPhee
UK Release Date: 17/07/14
Survivors of the simian plague trigger an all-out war between humanity and Caesar's growing forces.
I've seen every movie in the Planet of the Apes series, so unless this gets a really low rating on Rotten Tomatoes, I'll probably be checking this out in the cinema. (Ever since I ignored the Rotten Tomatoes score for the atrocious "Terminator Salvation" I've been disinclined to do so again.) However, I'm more than a little bugged to find that Rupert Wyatt isn't going to be making the follow-up to his game-changing reboot. I'm even more concerned now that Matt Reeves has been brought on board to replace him. Matt Reeves first film "Cloverfield" looked great, but had characters that annoyed the hell out of me. His next film after that was the lazy remake "Let Me In" which I absolutely hated. I don't have much hope for this sequel now, but at least it can't be worse than Tim Burton's reboot.
