We went to see this film this morning, partly because of its advertised connections to the original "Planet of the Apes" franchise of 1968, and not least because of its then-current "8.5" rating on your web site. Sorry! This not an "8.5" movie! The premise of a vaccine that can greatly enhance intelligence and then fails is taken from "Charly", another 1968 film that earned a Best-Actor Oscar for Cliff Robertson. But after this old, albeit promising, beginning, the film degenerates into the tired old shoot-'em-up clash of the hordes. Certainly not very imaginative. As the rating suggests, "So-so; could have been MUCH better." Save your money!
