As the major characters in War for the Planet of the Apes are chimpanzees, artists from Weta Digital researched the animals’ physical characteristics and behavior. They also used X-ray photos of chimpanzees to learn about their skeletal frames and established models to see their skin texture.

前前后后,，維塔總共動用了998個人，花了1.9億小時的電腦cpu處理時間（約合5400年），拍出了1440個特效鏡頭,。

雙語君（微信ID：Chinadaily_Mobile）深深地覺得,，維塔應該火速用這一堆數據,，建一條3D打印生產線,，這樣順帶手就把凱撒和他猩猩部下們的手辦模型,，順便生產出來，多好的“拍攝—衍生品”一條龍服務,。

除了特效，故事也是很不錯的,。

前兩部《猩球崛起1》（Rise of the Planet of the Apes）和《猩球崛起2》（Dawn of the Planet of the Apes）在豆瓣上的評分各自是8分和7.5分,。

《猩球崛起1》和《猩球崛起2》

因為早在7月中旬，《猩球崛起3》已經在北美上映,，電影網站IMDb上是7.9分,，在爛番茄上有93%的新鮮度。

The movie was released in North America in mid-July, and received 7.9 points out of 10 on the movie portal IMDb. Ninety-three percent of critics on the Rotten Tomatoes site also gave the film their approval.

《猩球崛起3》延續(xù)了把特效搞好,、也把故事講好的這個傳統(tǒng),，依舊拍得很好看。

In War for the Planet of the Apes, the third chapter of the critically acclaimed blockbuster franchise, Caesar and his apes are forced into a deadly conflict with an army of humans led by a ruthless Colonel. After the apes suffer unimaginable losses, Caesar wrestles with his darker instincts and begins his own mythic quest to avenge his kind. As the journey finally brings them face to face, Caesar and the Colonel are pitted against each other in an epic battle that will determine the fate of both their species and the future of the planet.

猩球系列一直廣受贊譽,，在第三部《猩球崛起3：終極之戰(zhàn)》中,，凱撒領導的猿族被迫與殘暴的“上校”領導的人類軍隊上演一場生死大戰(zhàn),。猿族在戰(zhàn)斗中遭遇了前所未有的重創(chuàng),，由此激發(fā)了凱撒內心黑暗的一面,，復仇的烈火熊熊燃起,。最終，凱撒與上校面對面進行了一場關乎猿族和人類命運的終極之戰(zhàn),。

影片一開頭,，就是人猿大戰(zhàn)。

凱撒騎在馬上,，率領猿族對陣前來圍剿的人類,。他本希望與人類和平相處，但這樣的愿望卻終究被血腥的現(xiàn)實粉碎,。

In the film, Caesar ['si:z ] rides a horse alongside his ape warriors to fight human invaders. He wants to get along peacefully with humankind, but sees the dream shattered.

再到后來,，風雪奔襲，為妻兒報仇,，拯救族群,。但到可以手刃仇人的那一刻，卻又出現(xiàn)意外的反轉……

To avenge the murder of his wife and son, and rescue fellow primates who are captive, Caesar embarks on a journey. But when he gets the chance to kill his ruthless foe, a twist occurs.

整個故事講得蕩氣回腸,，又百轉千回,。

而凱撒內心的掙扎、猶豫,、彷徨,，以及反派在冷酷無情背后的悲情秘密,，也讓《猩球崛起》區(qū)別于普通的爆米花娛樂大片，有了莎翁劇一般的氣質,。

但雙語君（微信ID：Chinadaily_Mobile）還想聊聊的是,，“猩球崛起”這個故事的電影開發(fā)史，和背后所同步崛起的好萊塢動作捕捉（motion capture）發(fā)展史,。

“猩球”系列被開發(fā)成電影,，最早可以追溯到1968年的弗蘭克林·斯凡那（Franklin J. Schaffner）執(zhí)導的《人猿星球》（Planet of the Apes)。

《人猿星球》（Planet of the Apes）劇照

影片改編自法國作家皮埃爾·鮑李（Pierre Boulle）1963年的同名科幻小說,。

這位法國哥們的人生經歷,，堪比一部史詩大片，很是波瀾壯闊,、跌宕起伏,。

鮑李出生于1912年，于1933年在名校法國高等電力工程師學校取得工程師學位,。
