An unexpected masterpiece

This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

One of the best things about this entertaining and intelligent action-thriller is the way that it doesn't pick sides, doesn't paint the humans as stereotypical villains in the way that something like, say, 'Avatar (2009)' does. Instead, it portrays its delicate situation with nuance in a way which allows everyone's perspective to be both clear and understandable. Even the main ape antagonist, who's militant sensibilities stem from a deep-rooted mistrust in humanity established in the prior title, has reasonable and somewhat supportable motivations. Once the set-up is out of the way and the action - which is bigger in scope, spectacle and success this time - begins, the feature still keeps its focus on character and this is what allows it to remain as emotionally resonant as it really is. 9/10

What an outstanding sequel!
This movie not only topped the first one (which I love),but also managed to put this franchise in the talk of possibly the greatest trilogy of all time.
Sure the planet of the apes franchise doesn't have the same level of popularity like Star Wars,or Lord of the rings,or Marvel/DC superhero films,but it has one of the most well written character I've seen in very long time,and that character is Caesar,an ape who been raised like a human being and saw the good side of humanity,in the other side there is Koba an ape who been tortured by humans and saw the bad side of humanity.
Matt Reeves did an amazing job showcasing the conflict between the two apes to the point where you don't even know who you rooting for.
This movie is filled with great performances,stunning CGI,and great story.
10/10 A must see.

The apes are back once again, and this time they are riding horses. They also have automatic weapons. The apes are led by Caesar, a really smart monkey who speaks English. Andy Serkis is the actor under all the makeup and he is excellent. The only recognizable actress is Keri Russell, best known for the TV series, Felicity. The apes live near a dam which is needed by the humans for electricity. Of course, it all leads to a bloody war between the two groups. The scenery is spectacular and the script well written. The biggest problem is the two hour and ten minute running time. The film is just too long. Otherwise, it is a pretty good movie.
