Dwayne Johnson's protective relationship with a transformed primate mirrors the emotional core that drives Rise of the Planet of the Apes, where human-animal bonds fracture under the weight of genetic experimentation and escalating conflict.
3. The Monster And The Ape (1945)
This 1945 serial pairs a giant ape with mechanical spectacle in the same spirit of creature-versus-technology destruction, channeling that same pulpy blend of practical effects and primal-versus-progress conflict across multiple episodes of escalating mayhem.

The bond between human and intelligent primate at the story's core drives both the emotional stakes and explosive action, with each film exploring what happens when that relationship becomes humanity's only hope for survival.
