“..though markedly better than 2001's Tim Burton reboot, this apocalyptic entry has a trickier road ahead, relying on positive buzz and sheer spectacle to win over skeptical auds..”
by Peter Debruge [Variety]

“..this reboot is worth watching..”

“..these apes may be smart, but with the exception of Caesar, they're really just effects. They never make you wonder who the maniacs are..”

by Owen Gleiberman [Entertainment Weekly]

“..there's no momentum to the film, no sense of a build-up to an all-out war. Rise of the Planet of the Apes throws out references to previous Apes films to amuse hardcore fans..”
by Rene Rodriguez [Miami Herald]

“..the movie rises and, at times, even soars..”
by Peter Travers [Rolling Stone]
“..strong action, special effects and by far the most credible ape "performances" yet seen will spell box office to inspire chest-thumping in all markets..”
by Todd McCarthy [Hollywood Reporter]

“..it's so brilliantly executed as to render the original version of this sequel-prequel in the apes epic..”
by Roger Moore [Orlando Sentinel]

“..it's smart dumb fun, if that makes any sense (and admittedly, it might not)..”
by Bill Goodykoontz [Arizona Republic]

“..a shamelessly fun B-movie with A-movie effects..”
by Steven Rea [Philadelphia Inquirer]
