Otherwise, they're all just "pets". All of this is conveyed with almost no dialogue or a few bits of sign language. Caesar only speaks two lines of dialogue in the movie: "No" when he rebels against cruel caretaker Dodge Landon Tom Felton and at the end when he tells Will, "Caesar is home. And while I love the small stuff inside the animal control center, the third act shows the movie's concessions to the modern blockbuster marketplace.
In my original review , I noted the many ways Rise breaks from the blockbuster formula, and I still hold to that. However, it also breaks from the previous Apes movies by avoiding uncomfortable social commentary in favor of the warm feelings of family bonding and the action spectacle that audiences and studios demand from summer tentpoles.
It's a modern Apes film in more ways than one, and while I'm a bit bummed out that it doesn't challenge the audience, it absolutely delivers on the emotions and the set pieces.
And yet it never entirely breaks from the original movies. There's a passion for the original Apes films that's completely absent from Burton's remake. Rise is packed with subtle Easter eggs that tells fans of the original, "We appreciate these movies as much as you do.
Zaius in the original movie. Then there are notes from the earlier films that have a major connection such as Caesar shouting "No! These little moments show that while we may not be in precisely the same mythology of the original saga, we're not quite out of it either. That extends to the tragic aspect of the story.
If the apes rise, it means humanity falls, but there's no indictment of our species in the reboot. In the special features on the Blu-ray, co-writer Rick Jaffa tries to say that the story condemns hubris, but I don't think Rise really goes into that. You could argue, as Jaffa does, that Jacobs displays hubris, but it's really straight-up greed rather than reckless excitement about pushing the boundaries of human intelligence.
At best, it's the generalized hubris of any movie where well-intentioned science causes horrible things to happen. Granted, Rise does try to push humanity's downfall to the background as much as possible. We don't see Will coughing up blood or bodies piling up in the streets. We see an occasional shot of Franklin going through the symptoms before dying, and then the spread of the virus is communicated using graphics during the end credits.
I'm actually surprised the original ending had Will being shot to death and his murderers being ripped apart by apes. Yes, it's a mirror of the opening scene, but it wouldn't fit with the overall tone, nor would it strengthen the theme about family.
Again, Rise isn't about making the audience feel upset.

He soon returns with three orangutans, two chimpanzees, and Koba the bonobo. Later in the book, he excitedly reports to Caesar and shows him and his small band of apes a pile of food that he and his own band had found.
Caesar sees skins from some of the fruit on the ground and questions Rocket. He sheepishly tells him that he and his band had eaten some of the food.
Caesar, suspicious of this mysterious pile of food, has Koba inspect only to find a camera and several other devices. After ten years of living in peace in the Muir Woods Park , Rocket has helped his people build a thriving village where he has become a prominent figure among his fellow apes. His friendship with Caesar grown to the point that they view each other as honorary brothers. Rocket is permitted to be apart of the Ape Council , and has retained his position as the second-in-command of the Ape Army.
Rocket and his wife Tinker would later go on to have a son named Ash , who would later in life become a soldier in the Ape Army and best friends with Caesar's son Blue Eyes the prince of the Ape Colony.
Rocket is first seen during the hunting expedition, and is seen again in the forest later on when his son Ash is shot in the shoulder while out on a fishing trip with Blue Eyes. Forever protective over his son, Rocket is visibly shaken by this attack and looks as if he might attack the humans only for Caesar to tell him to calm down.
After the humans put their guns away, Caesar and the others yell at them to leave the forest before having Koba and his group follow them into the city. Later at night, during a council meeting, Rocket argues with Koba over what should be done about the attack on Ash. Rocket angrily tells him that he follows Caesar's orders and that he will follow whatever Caesar wants to do.
The next day, Rocket accompanies Caesar and the army out into the ruined city of San Francisco where Caesar personally threatens the humans with war if they enter the apes' territory again. With the message being given, the apes leave the city after returning the satchel of the teenager Alexander. After the truce is made between Caesar and Malcolm, Rocket confiscates the human's guns and smashes them to pieces with a rock passionately, so that the weapons cannot be used against the apes or his son again.
Rocket is present on horseback when Caesar leads the army his friends and sons to meet up with Malcolm at the dam. Rocket listens to Caesar and Maurice's conversation about Koba, who hasn't accompanied them because Maurice believes he was still angry about Caesar letting the humans into the village, and decided to go out hunting.
Rocket then helps the other apes in saving Malcolm and his friends after they were trapped in debris by an explosion. He would later watch as Caesar and Koba have an argument which ends with the Ape King nearly beating the bonobo to death before stopping himself and forgiving him of his actions.
He watches as Caesar speaks with and gives the humans one more day on the dam telling them the apes will help. When Koba arrives at the Dam and angrily confronts Caesar, Rocket watches as Caesar proceeds to thrash the bonobo before stopping himself and forgiving Koba.
Later on, at night as power restored back in San Francisco he celebrates with the apes and humans until a gunshot is heard and Caesar falls from his home. Rocket then sees the Village go up in flames and watches as Koba takes power after secretly shooting Caesar and blames the humans for Caesar's death.
Koba then leads the Ape Army in an attack on the San Francisco Human Hideout it is unknown where Rocket went while the other apes followed the deranged bonobo orders in his plan of "vengeance".
He is later seen chained on a bus next to the human cages along with Maurice, Luca and many others because of their loyalty remaining to Caesar but he is later freed by Blue Eyes who then takes them to the old Rodman House where a still living Caesar is hiding out with Malcolm, Ellie and Alexander.
Rocket is present when Caesar fights with Koba and watches the battle for supremacy. Later on, he and the others aid those who were caught in an explosion caused by Dreyfus. He is forced to take cover when Koba opens fire on the apes before he and Blue Eyes would tend to a wounded Maurice who had been struck by Koba's stray bullet. Rocket watches as Caesar has Koba at his mercy before he sends the bonobo falling to his death, silently nodding at his friend.
After Koba's defeat and death, Rocket and the surviving apes cheer on Caesar before they leave and reunite with the females and young. Rocket is then seen kneeling before Caesar with the other apes as they await the impending war with the humans. Rocket still loyaly followed Caesar two years into the war. He was sent with Blue Eyes on a mission to locate a new settlement for the apes, away from the woods where the human army had been destroying in their search for the apes' haven hidden inside.
He returned with Blue Eyes revealing that night that they had found a desert far away from where humans would dare chase after them. Rocket's main reasoning beings that he "knows what its like to lose a son" referring to Ash. He offers his strength that would be of great use to Caesar in his battle. Rocket agreed with Caesar during the apes debate after Luca's death saying that they should continue on their mission whereas Maurice and Bad Ape believed they should join the other apes, not knowing they had been captured.
After the debate gets heated between Caesar and Maurice, Caesar storms off towards the base saying it was a bad idea bringing his friends. Rocket stares at Caesar shocked. When Caesar is captured and Nova goes to feed and hydrate him, Rocket distracts the guards from Nova by purposefully getting captured and to help the ape colony escape McCullough. When Red the gorilla is ordered to beat Rocket, Red is attacked by Rocket but soon over powers the chimpanzee. Rocket then participates in the apes escape by getting one of the guards into the prison cell and tricking him into standing in a spot where he can be grabbed by Maurice from under ground.
Maurice then kills the guard and gives the apes the key to escape. The apes then release their children and begin escaping through the underground tunnels. When Caesar wants to stay behind to kill McCullough, Rocket unsuccessfully tries to convince him to escape with them.
Rocket survives the battle and helps the other apes in avoiding the conflict between the humans. He also pushes Bad Ape to safety before the avalanche and journeys with the other apes to their new home. However, Caesar doesn't tell Rocket he was fatally wounded in the battle and has his last words with his other most trusted ape, Maurice. Some time later, he heard Maurice calling everyone and Rocket noticed that Caesar had died and ran to him. At first, Rocket was an aggressive and yet dominant chimp who was seen intimidating Caesar simply to show dominance over him, he showed immense pride in being in charge as he was the alpha, after being overthrown by Caesar, Rocket became a worthwhile ally and his sense of pride being mellowed out.
Because Caesar's takeover of what would become the Ape Colony, Rocket realized there was more to power than he originally thought. As seen in Rise , Rocket was not very bright; this was proven to be true when Caesar easily lured him out of his cage and into a trap. However, after he was exposed to the ALZ , Rocket becomes intelligent and struggled with the change.
Over the last decade, Rocket has evolved greatly from his old days when he was a normal dominant chimp he once was, as he shows a strong loyalty only to Caesar and isn't afraid to express it.
Rocket is now recognized for his strength and intelligence, which has allowed him to be a great mentor to the colony's younger generation of apes. As a father, Rocket would do anything to keep his son from harm, as shown where he stood in the way of his son when discovering the humans injured his son and looked tempted to attack them for it. Due to his friendship with Caesar, Rocket takes his protective nature to a whole level and takes it upon himself to protect Blue Eyes, Caesar's eldest son, from the wrath of ape-hating human Carver.
Rocket has no desire for power; this is evident by the fact that when Caesar was apparently killed by Koba , he did not use the chaos as an opportunity to become the new leader of the Ape Colony, in contrast to Koba's power-hungry and treacherous traits. As a follower of Caesar, Rocket does not believe that all humans are bad, as evident by the fact that he became friends with Malcolm. Rocket has displayed complete loyalty to Caesar, staunchly staying with the ape king, citing he needed him as they both had lost children, such loyalty bordered on the irrational, Rocket growing angry at those who lacked respect towards Caesar, such as Winter, due to the ape's betrayal, helping Caesar subdue him and how he stood up to strike Bad Ape for refusing to take Caesar to McCullough, forcing the ape king to hold him back.
He also felt they should continue to find McCullough, not wanting Luca's death to be in vain. Rocket is quite brave and selfless, instinctively putting himself in full view of the human soldiers to provide a distraction so Nova could escape.
He also furthered this by attacking Red to buy her time, despite knowing there was a chance he would be shot and that Red would heavily beat him afterwards. When Caesar wanted to finish his revenge, Rocket tried to convince him to leave with him, showing that he really cared about Caesar more as a brother than as a king. Planet of the Apes Wiki Explore.

Studios Characters. View source. History Talk 7. Then we can talk about Apes together strong! Bullying the Newcomer One day as he rested in his cell, Rocket picked up the scent of the new chimpanzee named Caesar and turned to beat his cell and hoot in anger, which was followed by the other apes' hostility to the newcomer. Submission Days later as he sat with his mate on the play area's center rock, Rocket gazed over his apes and spotted Caesar keeping his head down and not doing anything to call Rocket's attention, which Rocket's primitive mind made him believe Caesar acknowledged him as his alpha until the apes' play time ended.
Strength through Unity For the next two days, Rocket was in a slump due to losing his alpha status to Caesar, rarely leaving his cell, which made Dodge hose the grey chimpanzee.
