When one doesn't like a film, everything is objectionable. Your expectations

Posted by tine on August 27, 2011 at 09:21:57:
obviously were different from mine: I didn't expect a serious film about drug manufacturing and animal testing. I found the premise interesting enough to drive the resulting picture. I found the center of the picture, the bonding of the scientist and the ape, to be a welcome departure from the average such story. Falco was excellent in making the relationship sincere. THAT is what added something missing from almost all summer fare: a heart. I also found the orangutan and the gorilla "characters" to be developed enough so I cared for them--- yet another departure from the usual 1-dimensional Hollywood characterizations. The story was enough to keep one interested in between the action parts. In other words, it wasn't a non-stop 2 hours of FX with mega-decibel soundtrack concussions.
As far as the originals: they were hokey, boring.
