Stop Monkeying Around..."War For The Planet Of The Apes"


War For the Planet of the Apes (2017)

Rated PG-13

Starring Andy Serkis, Woody Harrelson, Steve Zahn, Amiah Miller,

Directed by Matt Reeves

The Story:

When Caesar's (Serkis) world is destroyed, he decides to take his revenge against the Colonel (Harrelson) and his army. There is no avoiding war any longer.

Easily better than the Transformer saga, the Planet of the Apes trilogy concludes (?) with quite possibly the best of the series.

That said, I was never the biggest fan of these films anyway, so my judgement might be slightly askew. :)

Caesar's tale wraps up, and they establish enough pieces that it can conclude wrapping back to the original Planet of the Apes film, or they may just continue and keep retelling future chapters.

Beautifully shot, and the incredible production values, if you've come this far into the series, you won't want to stop now.

Harrelson is also a wonderful foil for Caesar and personalizes the war, on both sides.

Final Grade: C+
