I recently watched Rise of the planet of the apes and John Carter.
Rise of the planet of the apes was pretty good, much better then I expected. Good script and great acting by the apes. It all looked very realistic until the whole bridge sequence, but you got to have some Hollywood action. A pleasant surprise for a bargain bin title.
John Carter was even more enjoyable. I love fantastical adventure movies. It gave me a bit of a Flash Gordon vibe in a good way. The visuals look great on blu-ray, and the all too popular orange-blue filter worked well on the red (well orange) planet. Definitely one I want to watch again.
