Synopsis

Several generations following Caesar's reign, apes – now the dominant species – live harmoniously while humans have been reduced to living in the shadows. As a new tyrannical ape leader builds his empire, one young ape undertakes a harrowing journey that will cause him to question all he's known about the past and to make choices that will define a future for apes and humans alike.

"Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes" could very well leave you asking this question (and of course you are perfectly entitled to): Where are all the humans? The answer to that also provides one of the most diverting aspects of the entire film. The humans are preoccupied with a vault containing all that is needed to get the satellite communications started again.…

Did I even watch this? It sucks. Apes are smarter but rely on human intelligence which somehow survives the stupid virus and now they have the hdd! Whoops. Spoiled the whole show. Sorry. It sucks anyway.

.#NOTMYCAESAR .#NOTMYMAURICE haha all jokes aside It wasn't bad, certainly not as good as Dawn and War but good enough It looks amazing, the majority of the CGI could pass as real and looking around the overgrown posthuman world was a pleasure in itself. perfect flick to watch with a hangover paired with a Bloody Mary (or three) very much hope this is the start of another trilogy

The Planet of the Apes prequel films have been nothing short of astonishing, and Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes continues this trend with remarkable filmmaking. The decision to set this installment 300 years after the previous films, yet still focus on Caesar's legacy, was a brilliant move. It effectively addresses the absence of Andy Serkis and Caesar by weaving his influence throughout the narrative.…

Whilst Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes is a competent and moderately entertaining addition to the franchise, I do wonder if there really was a need to make it? Kingdom (as I'll refer to it) is entertaining but it really does little, in this reviewers estimation, to move the franchise forward in a meaningful way.…

"Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes" is a thrilling continuation of the acclaimed franchise, directed by Wes Ball. The film dives deeper into the evolving society of intelligent apes, showcasing stunning visual effects and a compelling narrative that explores themes of leadership, conflict, and coexistence.…

Just seen this and thought it was a pretty good edition to the series. The CGI is now good enough for what is probably our first really in-depth look at the ape civilization following the fall of man. Sure, it doesn't have as grandiose a story as Caesar's but it does a grand job of world building and showing us how the ape society of the distant future is functioning.…

Has its moments, though overall I kinda found <em>'Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes'</em> a bit of a slog to sit through. The original trilogy are films that I do enjoy, they're very good. This fourth installment, however, underwhelmed me throughout its 145 minute run time.…

Quick question. So it was a virus that led to the role reversal between the speaking humans and their ape counterparts? Now the apes have the upper hand and humanity is back in the caves. What I don't really get is why everything is in ruins and why there's an escalator in the middle of a forest full of zebras?…

FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://fandomwire.com/kingdom-of-the-planet-of-the-apes-review/ "Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes is an intriguing addition to the franchise, full of fascinating parallels and a thought-provoking exploration of Caesar’s legacy, despite some lack of depth linked to the motivations of some characters.…
