Rise of the Planet of the Apes (2011)
Film 24/50

movie still with james franco pretending to be a scientist by standing in front of pretty pictures

So Rise of the Planet of the Apes. Once you get past your disbelief that Franco is a scientist (assuming you can) and the fact that no actual chimpanzees were used in the filming of the movie (I'm pretty sure that one dog we saw was CGI, too), the plot is totally believable. To-tal-ly.

Allow me now to spoil the film for those of you who have not seen it yet:
