Could be the same as the one I posted yesterday, but who cares. I think there's a few seconds different footage though, but not really sure.

4-Minute Clip 'Rise of the Planet of the Apes'

This is a finished product? No way. Action is too compressed -- an obvious effort to keep runtime down. Editing is rough to say the least. Sequence drags and people appear from nowhere. It's both slow and choppy at the same time.

Not a good sign. How much did this movie cost again? After seeing the knock out new trailer for the modestly budgeted 'Attack the Block', this clip is a disappointment.

Ape effects are damn good, but brass tacks editing and continuity are lacking. This would be tough to watch in one sitting. I can't imagine 2+ hours of this stuff.

Creepy Eyes

The 'human eyes' effects by Weta are the most off-putting thing about 'Rise of the Planet of the Apes'. They have an insidious look, even in the shot below, where the chimp is emoting love and concern for the man.

Couldn't watch this at the theater. Thirty-foot tall ape faces aping those awful fake/weird looking humanoid eyes at me for two hours would be too much. (Thank god this isn't in 3D. People would run.)

Plain ole ick.
