The film, Rise of the Planet of the Apes, was a movie about humans trying to find a cure for Alzheimer’s. They used apes to test different kinds of medicines on them and eventually it worked on one ape. The ape got shot, but it had a baby and they managed to save it, his name was Caesar, he grew smarter and smarter because of the drug he had that was the cure for Alzheimer’s and it was in his blood. He saw and figured that the apes weren’t being treated like the humans, he saw that they weren’t being treated equally. He ran away got apes together and turned against the humans.

I think that this movie was a good movie. It definitely got the point across that the apes were being treated badly. It showed a point of unfairness between humans and animals and it tried to get you to feel bad for the apes. The movie wanted to show us that us humans used or abused the apes for our benefit. But this movie also showed another point in my eyes I think it showed that animal research and testing for medicine can be extremely beneficial. In the movie, we found the cure for Alzheimer’s. That is HUGE!! Anyone who says that animal testing for medicine is a waste, in my eyes, should look at everything we have accomplished because of it, and how much more things don’t have cures.

This will be a great thing to use on my subject because of the success of animal testing. The movie will be very beneficial to my topic and I plan on using it in my research.
