The best of the new trilogy by far. Maybe a little less action oriented, and more psychological. The way the apes communicates, with most of them lacking the ability to talk, is incredibly expressive and layered. There are some very…

The usual Planet of Apes trilogy are all mostly good with creative story line- themes. The beginning moved at a glacial, slow pace but started to pick up after they found the 'mute', girl. It is again heavy violence told thru tragedy and…

A beautifully crafted film, with a profound message for humanity to ponder. The entire trilogy is very good, though this concluding episode is by far the most moving. Andy Serkis -- Caesar in these movies -- has perfected motion-capture,…

SWEARING... didn't notice any swearing in this movie from what I could remember. Just a pile of grunting throughout this movie. I don't know if they were swearing in the grunting language. Comment updated October 25, 2019

Is this the last of the 'new trinity' of Ape films? It wouldn't be a bad ending though the original went five movies long. There's definitely a grandeur to these films and Andy Sorkis is pretty good to say the least. I like the way they…

Very disappointing. Technically excellent. The apes are amazing as usual and very strong acting from Andy Serkis but the writing is awful and the story was emotionally manipulative. A pretty corny take on Heart of Darkness. Woody…

My opinion of the remakes of these 70's movies was at first "Not a good idea." But I have watched each one so far and they just get better and better. I actually cried real tears at the end of this one!😭

Well. Why did they use apes to tell an age old story that mean people suck and their demise? Not sure why the Planet of the Apes is such a franchise. Were there any toys in the happy meals? Why did it matter who was in the ape costume?…

No matter how bad this movie is there will be a sequel or prequel or time travel installment to the franchise. This movie would have been greatly improved if the apes wore roller skates and smoked cigars.

A well done movie, very enjoyable. When the first Ape movie came out years ago I avoided it because I thought it would be silly. However my girl friend suggested I watch them and she thought I would enjoy them. So I went back and…

Pretty good entry to this series. It does get a little dull about 2/3 in, but gets fun again after that. The resolution is a bit lame, but decent watch though if you liked the other ones!

The ‘apes’ delivered superior performances compared to the humans, including the script writers, except for maybe the young orphan girl who brought a measure of warmth into the winter landscape.

Dawn was much better. The humor was out of place in a couple scenes. Maybe too many slow moments and slow motion. Ending scene for final battle was a little stupid because it turned out there was a ridiculously easy way to wipe out the…

This final instalment of the revised adaption of the Planet of the Apes series that was based upon the 1963 novel written by French author, Pierre Boulle. I had always been impressed with the original five movies, starting with the 1968…
