If you loved Twelve Monkeys, try Dawn of the Planet of the Apes
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Theysit in Science Fiction / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to Twelve Monkeys, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Dawn of the Planet of the Apes is
San Francisco, post-apocalyptic dawn, a broken Ferris wheel. A colony of apes forages, human survivors regroup, fragile peace is forged. Matt Reeves orchestrates a tense standoff between two species.
