“Set in present day San Francisco, the film is a reality-based cautionary tale, a science fiction/science fact blend, where man’s own experiments with genetic engineering lead to the development of intelligence in apes and the onset of a war for supremacy.”
‘Rise of the Planet of the Apes’ hits US theatres on 5 August and in the UK from 12 August.
