Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes

Different animal. I see what you did there. 😆

god-DAMN-it, that Rob is so clever!!

The CGI on the apes was really good, it shows that 2024 CGI actually has the potential to be better than 2005 cgi for once. Other than that the movie stunk, stick with the first trilogy, it completed the apes story very well, leading to the 1960s original. This just feels like an obvious cash grab.

^^^Well, I agree on the CGI part.

By First trilogy you mean from the 70s films or the Caesar series minus this one ?

He means Rise, Dawn and War.

Ah okay. In that case not sure they did blend that well to the original.

War was kinda just a stand alone end to Caesars story. But that trilogy kept building up to a war we never saw.

We thought it was going to be a war between man and ape. The war ended up being humans obliterating themselves like retards. There was literally enough land and resources in the new world that humans and apes never had to interact. That was before the virus mutated further.

War ended with a prelude to the next story, the apes setting to build a society free of intelligent human interference.

I guess. The Caesar trilogy is basically the story of how we got to the talking ape Earth of the original. IMO, those movies told that story well, with a definitive beginning and end. At this point, I think we get the picture, and this movie just felt like an overly long filler story without much of a reason for existing, other than money.

^^^Pretty sure they all existed to make money.

What I mean is, when the first installment (Rise) came out in 2011 ppl said the same thing(s).

Do we really need this? This is an obvious cash grab. The original can’t be outdone. Etc.

Valid points, but (I think) in this case the material proved itself.
This fourth movie is the 1968 movie but w. a backstory; it’s been pretty cool seeing how we got here.

Ceasar's story beginning with Rise was good to see how it all began.

Dawn really showed the Apes expanding and growing with their own moral conflicts, and was just a Great film.

With War there was no war. I won't get over that. It's only purpose was to kill off Caesar SPOILER ALERT.

War was good, too. There were some battle-like sequences. I seem to recall it opened with a sort of jungle battle.

Woody Harrelson added a lot to the film, too.

Is it as good as Dawn? Nah (not much is), but it's good.

I really want to see this, but it will have to wait because I'm busy this weekend and Furiosa opens next week. That takes priority!

^^^If only there were a way to combine the two; Dementus battling the monkey forces, running them over w. monster trucks and shit… ✅

^ #TheMovieCrossoverWeNeed

Watched this.

It was good. It had a lot to accomplish having to sort of start from scratch and re-establish the world at this point. So considering that I think it did pretty well. I think I would still rank it just below all the others in the previous trilogy, though.

1. DAWN
2. WAR
3. RISE
4. KINGDOM

I was a little surprised that so many

Spoiler:
humans could talk

Finally watched

imo its bout 30 minutes too long

story wise as i've never watched these films other than the ones from the 60s this coulda bee written better

but i did like it but i feel it coulda been better
