Dawn of the Planet of the Apes is good enough, but... WARNING: Major spoilers ahead. In 2011, Rise of the Planet of the Apes lovingly and powerfully reinvigorated this franchise by focusing on the mistakes humanity would ultimately pay for their arrogance. Unlike many dystopian dramas, it made character development more important than the CGI world around it. And while the follow up makes great beauty in its digital imagining of a world gone mad, Dawn of the Planet of the Apes fails in telling its human story. Set 10 years after the simian outbreak, humans are on the edge of extinction, huddled together in San Francisco with the remaining resources of its once powerful technology. On the other hand, apes are getting along quite nicely thank you, as Caesar (Andy Serkis) and his village are living an idyllic life deep inside the Muir Woods. But soon that peaceful existence is threatened as humans stumble upon their tribe looking to restore power to a generator in the

Derek Cianfrance , who last directed the Ryan Gosling film " The Place Beyond the Pines ," is helming the drama. Rachel Weisz is in negotiations to star opposite Michael Fassbender in The Light Between Oceans , DreamWorks' adaptation of the M.L. Stedman novel. Derek Cianfrance is directing the drama, which Heyday Films' David Heyman and Jeffrey Clifford are producing. Set on an island off the coast of Western Australia after World War I, the book tells of a lighthouse keeper and his wife who find a 2-month-old girl and a dead body in a rowboat and decide to raise the baby as their own. But what seems like a blessing soon turns tragic, as morality and love are tested. A shoot in Australia is being eyed. Weisz was last seen in Oz the Great and Powerful and recently wrapped The Lobster, an indie sci-fi romance that also stars Colin Farrell. Please Leave A Comment- Source- THR

Here is the first trailer for The WILD Trailer starring Reese Witherspoon, Laura Dern, Thomas Sadoski, Gaby Hoffman, Kevin Rankin and Michiel Huisman . The film is based off of the novel written by Cheryl Strayed. At twenty-two, Cheryl Strayed thought she had lost everything. In the wake of her mother’s death, her family scattered and her own marriage was soon destroyed. Four years later, with nothing more to lose, she made the most impulsive decision of her life. With no experience or training, driven only by blind will, she would hike more than a thousand miles of the Pacific Crest Trail from the Mojave Desert through California and Oregon to Washington State—and she would do it alone. Told with suspense and style, sparkling with warmth and humor, Wild powerfully captures the terrors and pleasures of one young woman forging ahead against all odds on a journey that maddened, strengthened, and ultimately healed her.

Mission: Impossible 5 casts its female lead; Alec Baldwin also in talks. Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol was one of the top money makers of 2011 and made the top five on SJF's 'Best Of.' Sporting great action, a solid story, and the introduction of Actor Jeremy Renner to the mix created an impressive climb along the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, and a fitting epilogue MI: III . But unlike the flashy tone of the series, production on Mission: Impossible 5 has been rather under-the-radar. Rather than sporting the big news of Star Wars: Episode VII and Avengers: Age of Ultron , the creative team behind Actor Tom Cruise's baby have quietly - but effectively - put together a very good team for masterspy Ethan Hunt. And while its name has yet to solidified, we know of two bits of very interesting casting news that we recently announced. Along with Renner reprising his role as Hunt’s fellow IMF agent William Brandt, Simon Pegg will also return as techie Benji Dunn

Onetime Tomorrow person Robbie Amell has quickly teleported himself into a hot new role — on The CW’s freshman superhero series The Flash . TVLine has learned that the actor (and real-life cousin of Arrow star Stephen Amell ) has been cast in the recurring role of Ronnie Raymond, the fiance of S.T.A.R. Labs scientist Caitlin Snow (played by Danielle Panabaker ). Oh, and Ronnie is also one-half of the DC Comics character Firestorm – creating a tremendous bit of irony, considering Caitlin’s own (possible) destiny. In his Flash incarnation, S.T.A.R. Labs maintenance worker Ronnie plays an integral part in the particle accelerator accident that transforms Barry Allen ( Grant Gustin ) into the titular speedster. “[DC Comics Chief Creative Officer] Geoff Johns, Andrew Kreisberg and myself designed the pilot and series to include Ronnie (aka Firestorm) — and to actually have someone with Robbie’s talent playing the role is beyond exciting,” EP Greg Berlanti said in a statement. “We c

TV Review: 24: Live Another Day “9:00 PM – 10:00 PM” By: Brandon Wolfe ’ 24: Live Another Day ’ has a lot of story left to tell and not a lot of time left to tell it. “9:00 PM – 10:00 PM” is the penultimate episode of this 12-episode event series and it breaks its neck setting up all the pieces for next week’s finale, yet it still feels like it’s setting up the next 12 weeks, as if the writers somehow forgot that they weren’t required to fill their usual quota of 24 episodes. The episode is a non-stop dash for Jack to put many pieces together in a very short amount of time. It’s a busy hour that rarely takes a breath, usually ‘24’s’ strong suit, yet it all feels a bit like speeding toward a red light. I don’t know how the writers intend to resolve not only this season satisfactorily, but perhaps the entire Jack Bauer saga altogether (those ratings ain’t great, after all), with just one measly hour left. Historically, these guys aren’t the best closers even when they have all the
