The film I will talk about in my review

• The film I will be using is the newly released
  dawn of the planet of the apes. This is set 10
  years after the first film rise of the planet of
  the apes, when humanity is virtually extinct due
  to the virus.

Rotten tomatoes

• This site contains both reviews from top movie
  critics from well known magazines and general
  audiences viewers around the world. This site has
  the film at a 91 scoring, the majority of the
  praises this film has been given is due to its
  CGI and visuals. While some of the reviews are
  negative, with the top critics they give short,
  detailed, straight to the point reasons. where as
  with members of the general public, vast majority
  negative reviews only consist of the movie being
  'just awful
• The rating in 2015 has dropped by 1.

IMDb

• This site score the film at a 8.2 stars out of
  10. This site contains review from mostly
  audiences of the general public, in great detail
  about the plot and its CGI. Some of the people
  who have reviewed this film also give negative
  ratings, but in much greater detail. Rotten
  tomatoes is professional than the other as the
  reviews from high critics is on rotten tomatoes.
  if posting a review to one of the sites . I have
  done some research to find what site people of
  the general public prefer. Many say that they
  prefer due to IMDb being more accurate than
  rotten tomatoes movie scoring.
• In 2015 the rating has now dropped to 7.7/10

• With new technology and social media, it is very
  simple now to get across your views on many
  topics, such as films, TV, music, news. In my
  case I am able to get across my views of a film,
  not just in the same area but around the world.
  Normal the only source for reviews was newspapers
  and magazines, they were mostly of professional
  critics. But afterwards reviews are more
  accessible due to improvements in technology such
  as computers. Now that social media sites have
  been created general people of the public are now
  able to get their views across to the media and
  people reading of that similar interest. This
  seems much more reliable source than the critics
  as a piece is either heavily criticised or
  heavily praised.

My decision

• For my review to be put on a social media site
  many would be able to see my view of the film I
  Have chosen to review. With this they can either
  find it helpful or not when deciding on weather
  the film is good enough for them to see it for
  themselves.
• I believe that if I was to choose a site for my
  review,
• choosing IMDb would be considered the best
  option. Due to being a well popular and
  accessible site for people.

My Review Dawn of the Planet of the Apes

• Human civilisation is now a distant memory ten
  years after the ALZ-113 virus outbreak, caused by
  the ALZ-113 drug created by its previous films
  protagonist. The story is set in san Francisco
  and Apes inelegance has now rapidly increasing,
  with them now acting more like humans than ever.
  With whats left of mankind trying to rebuild
  their lives, both groups will soon find their way
  crossing paths with each other. The result will
  be either making peace or starting a war.
• With its big budget of 170 million dollars and
  stunning use of CGI, this film is not to be
  missed because of this. With such detail on the
  movement created by the actors of the apes, and
  the great detail that is shown on the hundreds of
  apes and other similar mammals. You can see the
  amount of effort put in to make these creatures
  to make them human, still with animal
  characteristics.
• Andy Serkis ( well known for his roles similar to
  Caesar, king kong and Golem in the lord of the
  rings trilogy) returns as the ape Caesar, now
  leader of the tribe and fierce of his family and
  friends, with his friend koba as second in
  command and Caesars son blue eyes learning how to
  become strong like his father. A small group of
  survivors, leaded by Malcolm (Jason Clarke),
  while wife and son Ellie (Keri Russell) and
  Alexander (Kodi Smit-McPhee) join Malcom on his
  journey, stumble into ape territory searching for
  one source that is to run out soon unless going
  into the apes turf, which is electricity from
  the hydro dam.

Part 2

• With small group and apes working together, we
  begin to believe peace is soon to come however
  its not so simple that some may be against the
  wishes of this.
• With this film, starts off slow as we get to know
  the characters and catch up with the last 10
  years of what earth has become, may be too slow
  for some peoples liking. The last half picks up
  the pace with all action packed into the end,
  although seems a little too much. Although CGI
  was good, I feel a little more action content
  could have been spread out a little in the film
  as the film main highlight and focus seemed to be
  on the special effects.
• On January 7, 2014, the studio announced a third
  instalment to the franchise with Reeves returning
  to direct and co-write along with Bomback, with
  2016 release date.
• This is a good follow up to the first film with a
  smooth transition from first to second film, yet
  I believe that the action will most likely be in
  the third instalment. I have high hopes that the
  upcoming film will do some justice for the lack
  of the fast peace in the current instalment.
