Hail Caesar

Rise of the Planet of the Apes ★★★★
Predictable anti-science message replacing the anti-slavery theme of the original Conquest of the Planet of the Apes.
Green Goblin Jr messing with things he doesn't understand - what would be the point in messing with things you do understand? 
Still it ticks many of my boxes, although ridiculous to say, the CGI super-intelligent rampaging apes don't look totally realistic. 
Manages to entertain and remove the smell left behind from the extremely disappointing Tim Burton 're-imagined' POTA. 
Baby chimps are cuter than human babies - fact. 
Adult chimps are terrifyingly strong and according to the Internet can pull your arms off, eat your face and rip out your testicles with one hand.
Actually only two of those are fact, there doesn't seem to be any evidence of a chimp actually pulling off an arm. 
I for one welcome our new ape masters.
