The 3D was nice but not eye-gouging, which is the modern way and probably a good thing.

The biggest issue I had was with the CG. The ape bodies were all seemingly badly proportioned. Chimpanzee legs were too short, fur was either too short, too rough or just looked fake. The orangutans were a bit hyper, over the top, floppy, sloppy and mostly just grunted, although their fur looked the best.

I will still buy it on 3D BD, but won't be rushing in to get it until the discounts appear.
I felt the look of the apes, considering they were standing up and acting more human, was pretty convincing in motion capture and appearance. The first hour took awhile to build up; agreed, though I did like the development of the Kojak ape (spelling, forget his name).

There were quite a few medium 3d shots in this actually. The cgi was awesome as was the acting and story. This is movie of the year for me so far. I can't wait for the 3d blu-ray release!
Glad you liked it. I liked this one better than the first one since we're already underway with the apes' development, plus the world is mostly abandoned by humans.
