I’ve watched all Planet of the Apes movies. My favorite was the 1968 original. This “Kingdom of the planet of the apes” is just TRASH. Poor flat actors, terrible plot. Characters introduced and there was no basis for them. Very slow to build any momentum. It made humans out to be dumb or evil and apes to be merciful and superior. It was just more “ posturing” than entertainment. I just wanted to watch a movie and be entertained. It was such a LETDOWN.

it was a wild ride tbh 😭 didn’t rly reference the old movies (only talked abt my pookie caesar) so it felt like its OWN movie yk? i loved it tho <3

Cash grab

Would have rather they continued the Cesar storyline!

I was expecting more.

Terrible, lack luster movie. Don’t bother, save your $$$$ I was extremely bored watching this and regret spending $40+ to see it. Wes Ball? Please don’t make another one.

Definitely entertaining and very tense at the end! Sorta confused to whom the random people were in the intercom room. Ngl May could’ve died and I wouldn’t have batted an eye lmao.

Boooo

Worst movie of the franchise

This movie sucks!

boring 💤

It was a good movie but I was expecting more.

it was really slow and the story was very generic and eh.

Dialog is hard to understand. Eventually figure out what’s going on, but still miss a lot.

BORING

It’s a waste 3 hrs. One of the worst planet movies

I was really hoping for a nice follow-up from Caesar’s son, Cornelius. Instead, they went too far into the future, giving no context to this storyline. A bit of a miss here.

the movie dragged. story was not great

It was just ok …..

Tho the human girl’s action and mistrust on noah did really urk me

Tooooo long! A lot of slow areas.

Great Continuation From War For The Planet Of The Apes. A Solid Stand Alone Movie As Well

Slow and boring. Save your time and money.

One again, The Planet of The Apes Universe has proven to be an excellent mirror of our modern social commentary and dynamics. Plus, the visual FX were amazing and action was heartpounding.

It was a good movie overall; it was like a beginning to a new storyline for the Planet of the Apes franchise. At times, it was a bit slow but I guess that's to be expected since they were essentially building a new story and introducing all new characters. I was originally expecting the story to follow Ceasars son as an adult until the plot actually came out. I would suggest seeing it for yourself because everyone's movie taste is different, but maybe go on discount night just in case you don't like it you won't feel so bad. lol

Movie was fine but doesn't really add anything to the universe. This movie introduces characters and concepts that are no longer relevant by the end of the movie because of the events of the film. It was a completely unnecessary addition to the franchise. I hate to be writing this because I love the franchise. The movie was interesting for sure but it just doesn't matter unfortunately. Perhaps the franchise just needs Caesar.

Great film with awesome story, however it would have been amazing if this story truly picked up where “WAR” left off with Cornelius being the main protagonist

Overall, this movie is alright as one of those “imagine what happened after this main part of the story” expansions to a series. Its the fourth movie in a remade franchise, but sadly it FEELS like a fourth movie. It does alrighty as a Planet of the Apes movie, but it doesn’t stand up on its own. It just feels a little off. Like a spinoff one shot comic.

Great entry to add to the lore of the franchise. Awesome twist on the human aspect of the story. Fantastic film.

must watch. two hours was not enough left me with a lot of questions but excited for the franchise future.

Best of the ape movies so far.

Love the Planet of the Apes movies, and this one makes me want to see what happens next! Praying for another one!

What a glorious day

Predictable, generic action movie.

Amazing movie 👍10/10

Wonderful film

stupid.. the previews were better than the movie

I did like it. The graphics, the storyline and the time lapses.

just ok

Wait for it on video

Boring and confusing

Much better that I expected

i only fell asleep once 💯

not good

I really liked this and it was very unique although I would have put a backstory to why Caesar was so important

It was just okay room temperature

meh. the pacing was awful.

WHAT A WONDERFUL DAYYYY

一般

The film may end on a bleak note, but there's some levity mixed into the very batter.

Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes explores the past while creating a new future, starting this fresh angle on the series to a rocky, but promising start.

Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes is a fun enough distraction.
