A few days ago, I was bored and watched the remake of Tim Burton’s Planet of the Apes. It was indeed a bad film. I thought that Tim was not suitable for making this kind of movies with certain hard science fiction themes. In short, it is There is more than fantasy but not enough rigor. In fact, when talking about the Planet of the Apes, one has to mention the classic Planet of the Apes trilogy, and discarding the third part that is very awkward, the stories of the first two parts are still very exciting, such as "full of the glory of humanity" and "Contains reflections on human inferiority and social system insufficiency" and so on. But on the whole, the great trilogy actually has no rigorous scientific theories as a background. Materials such as traveling through time and space can be played in the 1960s and 1970s, and they can be played in the 21st century brigade. The selling points of comprehension novels and TV series such as "The Palace". In other words, I personally think that for the theme of the rise of the ape race, first you have to make the question of "why monkeys get rich overnight?" That's just a game cg level.

However, this time the Planet of the Apes can be justified.
The main line of the story is how an ape named "Caesar" became the leader of the ape tribe and led the monkeys to stand up to revolution. Its urinary properties are similar to those of Thrall’s growth manager in the Yamaguchi Mountains. They are all saying that the secondary intelligent creatures adopted by humans have mastered the knowledge of truth, goodness and beauty under the care of the "good man emperor" to awaken the resistance of the enslaved ethnic groups. And successfully played a story of the sky from the siege. However, unlike the great tribal leader Thrall, Caesar's success relied more on the perseverance of human beings and the stubborn duty of the US Drug Regulatory Center.

The U.S. imperialist “Harbin Medicine Sixth Factory” where the human hero is located has developed a “brain-deficient one eats spirit” that can effectively alleviate the mental decline of Alzheimer’s, and used it to do experiments on apes. The leap-forward development not only enables listening, speaking, reading, and writing, but also quickly forms effective battle formations (this is actually quite nonsense). And the monkey king Caesar inherited excellent DNA from his mother who knocked the medicine, and learned from chess the "Three Arrows" of Morimoto's education of his son and Takeda Shingen clip front attracts the "woodpecker" surrounded by flanking flanks. "The method of tactics defeated the weakened US "SWAT" in one fell swoop. (I really suspect that the writer's letter Nagano is playing too much.) At the same time, human beings themselves are not idle on the matter of destroying themselves. The brain fragments (injections at first, then sprays) are essentially a kind of fighting poison with poison. Although the human hero’s father and the human hero seem to be naturally resistant, humans who do not have antibodies will die if they don’t breathe this spray. This also created a new construction idea for the overall big story background of the planet of the apes, a virus that can turn on the wisdom of the ape on the one hand and kill humans on the other hand is spreading widely. What reason does the monkey not turn over and become the owner? I think this setting is not only easy but also difficult to debunk. Today, when "A Brief History of Time" is popular all the year round, the magic of basic physics is no longer good, so it is more sincere to fool the audience with biological science. It is also less prone to be punctured. In addition, the transfer of human self-destruction from nuclear war to virus after the end of the Cold War era also echoes the modern society’s reflection on the “abuse of technology”.

Overall, I personally think that this film is still good. Although the level of ideology has declined compared with the old man ape trilogy, but with Andy Saiski's superb monkey performance and excellent post-production special effects, this movie is worth the price of a commercial entertainment movie. However, apart from the two protagonists, everyone seems to have performed too rigidly and lacks a sense of presence. This is also the most important reason why I deducted one star.
In addition, because I am watching the movie theater version without subtitles, there may be some deviations in the understanding of the part of the drug research (the hearing is still poor), and I hope that some students can correct the deviation in my understanding of the plot, thank you.
