At some point I thought the director brought real apes in the production. The cgi was phenomenal especially on Maurice.
Max Messmer just imagine in the next decade how cgi is gonna look.
The Bee Movie also had great CGI
Varinder Bhandal seriously I was thinking the same thing
The actor who did the motion capture did a brilliant job. Her acting combined with the CGI made me step back and consider the possibility of Maurice being an actual orangutan.
Varinder Bhandal you can't really see it in the close ups
In my opinion, Caesar is one of the best heroes ever put to screen. He's up there with Luke Skywalker.
Jon-Vegard up there with Batman
And Maurice is up there with the best side kick characters like alfred
Facts indeed
A fighter for his people survival and independence. Eren Yeager from Attack on Titan was meant to represent the same ideas, but the last chapter of the manga ruined him.
And they somehow made a chimp relatable
A GREAT TRILOGY WAS MADE. FILMS TOGETHER STRONG.
Jose Rodriguez such an amazing trilogy, best piece of cinema.
I feel like nobody gives credit to Rocket, he does so much in this movie yet no one mentions him
Hennrick Himmler same he been through with casear from the beginning,plus he is a true bro almost dying just to save nova.
this is a marvel refference righttttt???
@@anonymous-rb5tl Bruh
🤦♂️
I really liked the common ground established regarding them losing a son, along with all of the other character building of the apes that accompanied Caesar. With so much focus on Caesar, it’s amazing how well developed the other characters were.
I hope rocket gets a big role in kingdom
I kinda think Jeremy missed something really important about Woody Harrelson fate and suicide... He didn't killed him self because of his fate. He killed him self because of the realisation that, same as him now, his son was still a rational human being capable of thinking.. and he shot him in cold blood. Its the sadnes that killed him... he was dead long before he put a gun to his face
Marin Domjanovic I thought that too
I think he was just super committed to his beliefs even if the virus got to him, he had made the choice to kill himself a long time ago if it ever got to him. Kill anybody. Even if he still has his intellect he would assume he's going to lose it soon. I don't know you may be right but that's what I took from it, that he's a man who stands by his belief even when it's his life.
there were clues to his current state of mind: his sons picture on the table "floating in alcohol", him grasping for the bottle and the gun was still in its holster. In "movie visuals" that woud mean he wants to forget what happened to his son more than just actually kill himself. The tipping point was realisation that Ceaser is right... he really has no mercy
and that army in the end - were they mutants? I think they were.
Mutants?
Just saw the movie. Can't lie, I cried during every ape death. This was honestly such a phenomenal trilogy though, and I'm really gonna miss seeing Andy Serkis on the big screen as Caesar. That man is a film icon.
LovePatchSour Same
LovePatchSour I'm feelings exactly I just saw it too im gonna miss Andy he gave his heart to this chacater
I cried at every blockbuster this yr. Logan;WW;SM:HC; WoPotA,
Snicker licker
Thank god there's no pervert little kids saying "OMG BABE! YOURE SO HOT" to you lol.
Isn't it amazing how far CGI has come?
Nope.
If it's done right
FASTER! marvel hasn't, DC kind of has.
FASTER! You do realize that Iron Man isn't practical, right? They built a practical suit but it made it hard for RDJ to act and they just ended up doing mocap for the rest of the films. There was a portion of a BTS reel (or maybe it was an ILM documentary, I can't remember) that had Jon Favreau telling a story about how he thought he was giving corrections on reflections and lighting in the CG suit and it turned out he was commenting on the real suit. The sad thing about CG is that you only notice it if it's bad. Go look at the Logan VFX reel or any of the VFX reels for Fincher's films. CGI has come a long way but just like everything else, it's not always perfect.
FASTER! A little bit I really think it's the reliance on CG on its own that makes it seem less realistic. When paired with practical effects I think it can be seamless but right now it's not financially practical. I will admit, the CGI in recent films may seem to be a little bit lacking but when I look at characters like Rocket and then the entire battle that happened at the airport in Civil War, I begin to question how much of what I thought was real actually wasn't. I think the big spectacle scenes seem to be lacking but I feel like that's simply symptomatic of what I mentioned earlier which is an over reliance on CG. I don't think it's that the CGI is horrible, I just think that we are so used to it going unnoticed that we complain at the first sight of inaccuracy. Now that doesn't necessarily mean we shouldn't critique as that simply breeds complacency where improvement can be had, but I ultimately am fine with portions of CG that are good but not great so long as it allows a director to better realize their vision. So CG might look meh in some cases but so long as it is tolerable, I can roll with it for the sake of escapism.
"War" was so damn good, the score, the cinematography, and the cgi on those apes, that whole trilogy was pretty much flawless, up there with Lord of The Rings.
David R Yes beautifully written and shot, the emotions depicted by Caesar in the moment of silence were on point ☝️
This may be blasphemous... this trilogy is better than LOTR. LOTR has very diminished stakes which is very much not a problem in the apes movies. The apes movies also resonate thematically better and bring up so many fascinating ethical dillemas. Seriously, watch them all in a row and your heart will be messed with in a way LOTR doesn't come close to
As much as I love the series as a whole, it is far from "flawless," the way the franchise treated the human characters in the first film nearly ruined the film for me - they were barely developed and James Franco was so wooden in his performance and just completely forgettable. Same with the human characters in Dawn, they were barely well-developed.
ihateu890, couldn't disagree with you more. The human characters without exception are pretty great and extremely well developed.
Yea sorry, can't agree with you. I didn't give a shit about any of the human characters in the first film, the only character in that film that I cared about was Caesar. That to me was a fundamental flaw in the first film. Things slightly improved in the way the human characters were treated in Dawn, but again, I found myself caring less about the humans and more about Caesar and the apes. At least with War we hardly had any human characters, they made a good choice by just focusing on the apes for a majority of the movie (and that is why War is my favorite film of the three).
I feel really bad for Cornelius losing his entire family...Rocket and Maurice will probably be able to get over Caesar's death, being adults and knowing he died for a noble cause. But Cornelius has only just reunited with his father, his only surviving family member, right before he dies as well...
I like that nod to the original movies with the names Cornelius and nova
Cammoe2011 I'm pretty sure Nova is going to become the character we see in Planet of the Apes so it's not really a nod. Cornelius on the other hand will probably grow up to be the leader of the Apes which is way different than the original Cornelius so I guess that is more of a nod.
The Batman yeah there are too many plotholes
Cammoe2011 How the hell is that a plothole?
The Batman Maybe Cornelius won't want to be a leader since he'll know what happens to his father.
Perfect timing, I just got back from seeing the movie !
Sameeeeee! Epic.
yugioh887 Same
Me too!
yugioh887 me to
yugioh887 Same here
The most powerful scene in the movie (in my opinion) is when the little girl comes by and gives Caesar water. The other apes across is telling the little girl to give him food and from that one ape that showed the sign, "Apes Together Strong", leading to the rest of the apes doing so as well. Finally the little girl right in front of Caesar's eyes does the sign too. Very touching moment. Love this movie, one of the best trilogies out there. Thank you for creating Caesar to be one of the best characters out there.
the most powerful scene to you was when the little girl just walks right in a heavily guarded base without being seen and walks up to the prisoners without anyone ever seeing her?
I loved the part when Caesar said "So this is what it feels like" before dying.
forceaidan8 lol
forceaidan8 I think you got the movies mixed up lmao
forceaidan8 I also loved it when he said it when Koba shot him.
I understood that reference
HomySwagYolo it's a spoiler review idiot
It was amazing. Saw it yesterday. Beautiful movie. Beautiful trilogy.
megamcee Agreed.
After watching all three in a row, I'm declaring this the best trilogy of all time. That was an emotional ride I don't think I was prepared for.
sivad parks dude, it's not nearly as good as the dark knight trilogy and Not even in the same league as Lord of the Rings
I love both of those. The Dark Knight movies has some plot holes (particularly rises) and some poorly filmed action (particularly begins). No one apes movie is better than The Dark Knight, but all three are equally solid and cohesive, perfectly blending into one story. LOTR is harder to argue but I personally am not really a fan of Return of the King. There aren't any stakes (no one freaking dies) and the battles became really cartoony. And that movie feels its length. The apes movies are slow but they are absolutely gripping. LOTR has some slow moments that aren't nearly as gripping or as intense.
Also, it's fine if you think that. These are all great trilogies so I'm cool having a different opinions on it.
sivad parks Same
sivad parks agree
i agree all 3 were amazing
Did anyone else catch onto the fact this film was based on the story of Moses? :) Literally, Ceasar is Moses, the slaves savour, the avalanche being the "red sea" that kills the enemy and Ceasar dies right before him and the apes get to "Jerusalem" :)
Sam Aspinwall Moses died like Caesar?
Aryan J actually he does, because of the sin he dies up in a high place just like moses. His sin was his own rule, ape not kill ape, he still feels guilty that he killed koba
I did too.
Randy Smith what?
Yeah Sam! Kiss your self
ironic that ceaser was becoming like koba like " you either died a hero or lived long enough to become the villain" harvey dent dark knight when talking about ceaser
joseph raymond that shows how matt reeeves is the right person to direct the batman
geromino97 i really just hope they decide also to change up the joker if they use him in the new batman and i really hope batman doesn't have murder boner
geromino97 okay calm down there
Joseph Raymond it really bugs me that your quote is in past tense lol no big deal tho...
Was I the only one bawling at the end when Caesar died?? Omg I was a wreck lol
Matt Thompson next time put spoiler alert cuz ppl havent seen it
Prodigy123 I mean, it's a spoiler review, what'd you expect?
I got choked up when his family dies and his last son turns out to be alive. the emotion and the music made that scene so beautifully tragic
Prodigy123 God bless your soul
It caught me off guard. Had me bawling.
Its still a "War" film, just not in the traditional Hollywood sense. It's more like how Game of Thrones pulled off the War in Season 3 and 4. Which is super refreshing, this movie is friggin fantastic
Army1601 exactly what I was thinking. The way I see it. It shows different aspects of war. Not just big epic battles, which we do get at the beginning and end, but also the struggles that come with it. The lengths this band of human soldiers went through was full Nazism and in any other situation would have been a full blown war crime. The POW side with the apes, Caesar and the Colonel's internal struggles, the battles big and small, the consequences of war, and just the overall tone and situations Caesar's apes and the humans find themselves in. All of this plays its part in determining the fate of the planet, not just the big ending battle with a bunch of explosions (though that was awesome).
Army1601 ikr, this portrayed war by showing different aspects of it, and it pulled it off really well.
Just came out of this film and I have to say; it was amazing.
I've been a fan of this series ever since the first reboot (Rise), and I'm more than thrilled that the films haven't dipped in quality, but have actually gotten better.
The CGI and motion capture was, and continues to be the gold standard in film-making, bar none.
War for the Planet of the Apes perfectly encapsulates what the *entire* series is about, and the nods to the originals are there for the really old-school fans as well.
10/10
For me, such an impactful moment was when "Donkey" finally made the switch and decided to save caesar, he was such a brutal character the whole film to his own kind and seeing the wheels turn and the tragic realization happen in his face seeing the apes getting killed and then making that last decision to save his own kind, beautiful!
I was upset that he didn’t get to take out at least a couple more guys but he died so fast :(
I think the "war" in the movie is Caesar's internal struggle through out the movie. His struggle of what kind of leader he is and how will his followers remember him as.
True, or the war could be an actual war. A war is not a battle. It is the state of conflict. Apes and Humans are in a state of conflict including battles the whole film.
Gorgeous movie beyond belief. The editing, the cinematography, the CGI, the acting, the script, the direction, the soundtrack, the whole story was just a piece of art.
THIS TRILOGY IS GOLD.
Am I the only one who thought when Maurice, Nova, and Bad Ape were in the tunnel that the water was going to flood it. So Bad Ape and Nova could fit through the whole but Maurice would drown? Thought they would go down that root.
Eh just me? ok.
No me too. I was so freaking worried they'd kill off Maurice in some tragic way where he can't do anything like that.
sivad parks same, I was scared that either Maurice or Rocket were gonna die
I thought Rocket was going to die when he made the distraction for Maurice, Bad Ape, Nova
This movie did a lot of dark shit
Tyler Birdman yea I was on the edge of my seat at that part and then I had a huge sigh of relief
Tyler Birdman same
Tbh I think I like this better than homecoming. Don't get me wrong I love Spider-Man and seeing him in the mcu is a dream come true. But when you see this moving after the other 2 it's truly a masterpiece
I don't think this should be compared to Homecoming at all. Entirely different themes and concepts, well done in both cases
ok, so when they were talking about how the virus was making people less intelligent did you think "wait a minute Woody, are you sure it's not just making it so people can't speak, and not hurting intelligence? because this little girl legit learned sign language in at most a few weeks and is generally pretty normal given the circumstances." like what if the other people were just freaked out they couldn't talk suddenly, so they were a bit off and stressed? it's not like they gave them time to adjust or get used to lacking the key linguistic skill they'd become accustomed to in their life. I saw the movie with my Dad and Brother, and that was what we took from it, that the Colonel didn't fully understand the virus and hadn't truly understood what some scientists had told him. and in the end when he can't speak he realizes he killed his son because he couldn't speak, but his son was still fully aware and cognizant, he's racked with guilt and can't bear the shame and regret, so he kills himself. it's poetic and tragic and adds depth to a relatively flat character and makes sense of why Nova's still intelligent, especially for a child.
It does make me wonder though if the virus will cause individuals to become less intelligent as it remains in the host body after a few years.
very sad but he deserved it because he killed caesar's family
Carl Deaton i'm pretty sure Nova just got the minor symptoms and won't be affected by the full virus.
maybe, but then that's inconsistent within the movie. I tend to take what movie characters say with a grain of salt, especially when non-scientist characters say their own opinions that aren't backed up by research as fact. like the characters might not understand it either. either of these are possible explanations, Nova just seemed very intelligent for a child for a virus to be making her stupid.
Carl Deaton well he doesn't know that, he's desperate and he's narcissistic. He'll do anything he can to rally his followers and remain in some sort of power
I think they should stop here. If it's successful they probably won't, but this was so good I don't need another one for awhile.
I don't really think there is a way to go forward with that ending anyway.
I loved this movie, it emotionally invested me from the start with his family and carried that through the movie all the way to the end. Such a great movie and an awesome way to end the trilogy of ceaser.
BGLNZ it was a well shot movie but in my opinion the story was really lackluster. The movie was so long, and they played the Schindler’s list card a bit too much. The only emotion I felt was the first scene where the son and Mom were killed. The rest of the movie and especially the dialogue had me half asleep.
+Florian Krentzel
I disagree completely. The story, character and writing were excellent. Even "comic relief" characters such as Bad Ape had hidden depth ( his character introduction almost brought me to tears ).
my god, I watched Rise of the Planet after watchinv War, it's so heartbreaking. Early in the movie you see him swinging around the house sneaking snacks from the top shelf and all curious. Then you see he has to go to the ape pound or whatever it's called. he get's separated from James Franco and realize things and he didn't even know what would happen farther into the future. I was holding myself from shedding tears.
At least he had a good life for a while.
😭😭😭😭
Caesars relationship with James Franco’s character was my favorite 😓
I said the same thing. Watching the beginning of rise is depressing seeing what his life becomes at the end
They made it clear in the movie that Koba supporters were to scared of Caesar to return and were awe struck by how advanced Humans were compared to Apes which kept them there on what they felt was the winning side.
RISE - Great
DAWN - Even Better
WAR - Best of the Trilogy
Plasma Steed
Just how a Trilogy should be..
Rise - Phenominal
Dawn - Masterpiece
War - Beyond Masterpiece, one of my favorite films ever.
Perfectly balanced as all things should be
BEST trilogy ever... I LOVED it
KuutsuoDyly KD dark knight still my favorite trilogy personally
Eric Benecke yeh it's pretty good too
I don't think I'd go that far. Time will tell if it resonates as well as the OG Star Wars trilogy or The Dollars Trilogy. But it's definitely the best prequel trilogy of all time by about 10,000 miles.
It's way better than Star Wars. Empire is my favorite movie of all time but Return is kind of a let down. It really fails as a finale to the "best trilogy of all time."
sivad parks I wouldn't say "way better," but I know what you mean. The Lord of the Rings Trilogy is perfect, though.
Honestly I just felt bad for every ape death. Even the "donkey" at the end. It was super traumatic :(
Got back from seeing it today and it was just phenomenal. You know you've seen a terrific movie when the whole family are discussing it all the way back home. The ending was just soul destroying. Give Serkis a fucking Oscar already!!!!
Dawn is my favorite of the three movies, it had a perfect villain, intricate story, and phenomenal characters. It was a perfect sequel
That one hanging hair on Jeremy's head is shaking as much as I did at the end of this movie.
Came back from watching War for the Planet of the Apes and this I have to say was the best out of the series now. The themes this film had were just amazing. The acting especially from Andy Serkis is the reason to watch this film. I think the academy should have a category for best performance capture as a category. Seriously Andy Serkis deserves an award and I feel it's long overdue. This series really pushes the envelope in Performance Capture which in my opinion is a derivative of Method Acting. The quality of storytelling is just perfect in this film and Matt Reeves did a phenomenal job. I feel if Transformers gets rebooted Matt Reeves should take on the franchise. What makes this film so amazing is you see it from the Apes point of view from the beginning to the end and the interactions between Casear-Maurice, Caesar-Rocket, Caesar-Bad Ape, Caesar-Lake etc, are some of the highlights of this film. Just seeing all the apes interacting with one another throughout the whole film is incredible to watch and Transformers needs that.The use of sign language with the Apes was integral as well and seeing how they communicate was captured perfectly. Caesar making sure that he will take his kind to the Promise Land was always a goal that he wanted to achieve because it had that theme of Braveheart, like Wallace Caesar wanted to make sure Apes will get their freedom. Overall this movie is worth watching and I hope a fourth one gets made
The academy did give Serkis a shoutout last year so at least he isn't going unnoticed.
Raghu Seetharaman My favorite was character was Caesar, but my second favorite may have to be the Colonel.
This movie was so fucking awesome. Very emotional and deep and easy for me to connect with since I'm a father. I was really sad to see all of the loss Caesar had to go through in this movie and then his death just hurt even more
I hope this movie goes down as a sci-fi masterpiece. It was everything it needed to be and made this trilogy 3-for-3. I'm feeling like this is my favorite movie of 2017 and with time might become one of my favorite movies period.
Caesar's death reminded me of Tom Hank's character death in Saving Private Ryan, both showed mercy to enemy and both got shot by the same dude they spared.
I JUST WATCHED IT RIGHT NOW IM CRYING THANKS FOR THE UPLOAD
The movie is a masterpiece just saw it....
Sandro Frias me too
Sandro Frias I strongly agree
A bunch of people left my cinema during the movie. I guess they were expecting a transformers movie.
Pierce Smith same here, I didn't know why, this movie was phenomenal, this and Logan are the best movies I have seen the entire year.
Could have been, because of all the Deus Ex Machina, revival of Jar Jar Binks, Moses retold or the second coming of totally incompetent Star Wars Soldiers. I was close the leaving myself, because my suspension of disbelief was tried hard at times.
riftwaechter You moron.
Your right Karl he's definitely a MORON!
the missing link So all greatness is thrown out of window because of avalanche? Sure. You're a moron too.
I missed the fact that the doll spread the virus to the Woodster! I thought he just got it somehow. Thanks for the clarification! Great movie and review Jeremy.
did you have snacks or something when watching since the camera even zooms in on the doll which makes Caesar realize what's happened =D I mean, it wasn't a blink-and-you-miss-it moment but short enough that you could miss it by looking somewhere else for a couple of seconds
I think people are missing Woody's plan for the wall. Caesar was telling him that the wall would be pointless as it wouldn't keep the army guys with helicopters and missiles out. That wasn't his plan. His idea would be to get the army close to their base (like they did at the end) and then they would trigger the avalanche (which happened). The wall was going to protect the guys in the base while it wiped out the army guys outside it. It was actually a pretty awesome plan if the monkeys hadn't fucked it all up for them.
Uhh...no
yeah except the avalanche came from the mountain behind them and would have ran them over instead of the invading army...
Jeremy Also, the wall was made of rocks loosely placed together. It wouldn’t have stopped an avalanche....
I don't think the wall was meant to protect his own men. I think the wall was there to hold the enemies in that position so he could wipe everyone out (possibly sacrificing a lot of his own men in the process)
It’s about a psychological war. Not a physical war
ceaser dying made me emotional af
Also you forgot the emotional moment when Caesar picked up his strength after feeling the support of his people once again.
Every good Trilogy Hero Dies
I think that you - and several others - may be missing the point of the title. This ultimately is a war story, but isn't *just* about the battle between Man and Ape; it's about the horrors of war, the justification that people have for engaging in it, and how it affects and changes others. It may not be high on action, but with all of its themes and parallels to actual war, I can safely say that this is one of the most authentic war stories that I have ever seen.
All this can also be argued for why the title could have been better. While you are correct and as a solo movie title I think it would be alright, but as part of a trilogy of Rise, Dawn, War, and since the trailers also painted the movie as more action-packed, the title ended up very misleading to a lot of people. I think it's one of the biggest reasons for so many people thinking this is a bad movie, as it was something entirely different that they were expecting.
Does anyone remember when memes were just funny pictures?
Fred Huggins Good ol times 😌
The dark ages are behind us
Fred Huggins Jeremy's not a meme.
Before they turned to shit
Apes trilogy has easily the best CGI ever made. Insane realism.
I thought this one was the most beautifully directed, acted, and shot film of the trilogy, but it was the most boring of the trilogy as well... Don't get me wrong, it was great, but not as fun as the others for me personally, especially for a movie with 'War' in the title! I felt that the audience was earning a great big action sequence towards the end by getting through such long winded, albeit rich character development. Not much action in the film, but a ton of drama and character growth. Still, we got one battle at the beginning and an interesting escape at the end, but no war. I just wanted a punch of action at the end that I really only got a taste of. I give it a Buy-It-On-BluRay, but I give Maurice himself an Awesometacular. And Andy Serkis is one of the greatest actors of our time. He deserves an Oscar Nom.
EDIT: Don't get me wrong. I loved the movie. I only using "boring" as a comparison to the other films. It may have been more boring, but it wasn't boring in itself. Lime green may be yellower than purple, but lime green isn't really all that yellow. That's what I'm suggesting. I expected the incredible character development to lead to an emotional battle in the finale. But if that wasn't you, great. At least we both love the film.
100% agree
Carlos Rodriguez same. This was my most anticipated movie of the year and I can't help but feel a little disappointed. I am a completionist so I will probably pick up the trilogy set on Blu-ray anyway.
I think it depends on your definition on boring. I was invested in this journey from start to finish. I understand the love for action, but the story and Caesar's personal journey werre so powerful and engrossing that I honestly never noticed that the action wasn't going down. I can't tell you how many times this movie had me at the edge of my seat with no action at all. I felt the final act had as much action as it needed to complete the story. While nothing tops the final confrontation between Caesar and Koba in Dawn, I felt the battle and Caesar's final bow cemented this as one of the greatest trilogies ever made.
Carlos Rodriguez You have to remember that POTA is a true Science Fiction franchise, in the same vein as Blade Runner, 2001, or Star Trek. This isn't Marvel or Star Wars. There wasn't much action-y stuff in the original movies either (and one of them was called Battle). This franchise is more about the journey of the characters, like Taylor or Cornelius in the originals,
or Caesar now. You can even argue that the "War" in this movie was within Caesar himself. He has an internal battle throughout the film between his longing for Peace and his need for revenge, and sadly his need for revenge won out, and is what got him killed.
I wasn't disappointed at all I loved the movie and the direction it took and I found it better than Dawn for many reasons and I in fact was more blown away than if it would have been 80% of battles because it's a War, I find it being done this way much more better than having a full on war and everything, you even see Caesar say multiple times in dawn and in war that he didn't want this war and he doesn't want to have it because they don't have the really necessities to win it.
Just saw this movie . I really enjoyed it. The printed prologue detailing RISE AND DAWN was a great at giving viewers a review course, without endless exposition clogging the film. I do consider this a war movie. Wars aren't like WW2 anymore, they are rougher, more scattered , and pardon the awful pun, often done in a gorilla-fighting style. The ending was sad, but felt honest. I really hope that if more movies are made in this universe, they do not go the bat-s**t crazy Heston route.
Why isn't it a blue background this time?
Im hyped as shit for reeves Batman movie
This had to be one of the best movie if not of of the best with cgi
the movie was incredible ! 10/10 trilogy, so beautiful and sad at the same time, I was with Apes 100%, not happy about who died :( I hope they make a part 4, this trilogy will be in my heart always.
Chaos Is Coming yep, a 4th has been confirmed
dynamo but we don't know if that will be a sequel movie or an anthology film like Rouge One was for Star Wars.
its odd how no one talks about how dark this movie was
Cesar had a tough life. A true alpha male.
This movie was beautiful. Caesar and the Woody Harelson were so intense. And I especially loved how it answers why people turned feral later as we see in the original movie. Really I hope they discard all of the dumb sequels and just keep the first and maybe the second as canon only. That's just imho it'll be interesting to see if they remake the original or keep going... or both.
parts 2-4 aren't dumb sequels. The second is unnecessary but still has plenty of enjoyable scifi elements. I really enjoyed that film. The third film is humorous, very much like Star Tek 4 but ends on a real depressing note and the directors cut of Apes 4 is like mega depressing and a great film.
Caesar getting killed by the soldier he let live was just like in Saving Private Ryan.
I love pancakes
No after credits scene.. i waited for nothing
Just think of it as a show of respect to the crew and you'll never feel like it's a waste of time. See I'm so smart.
What do you mean respect to the crew?
Hi, I'm Captain America. You know one of the great qualities that should be part of our life is patience, because I know you had patience for something that was....disappointing. How many more of these do we have left?
+DrViperVideos Just because all the MCU movies have after credit scenes, that doesn't mean every single movie has to have an after credits scene.
perfect ending
I went and saw the triple feature at amc and these movies are not only good movies but actually flow really well together. a lot of trilogys have a few flaws with small bits of continuity but this one really nails continuity
The girl is called nova, so is the girl in the original movie...
And the son is called Cornelius as is the archeologist in the original. Not that big of a deal. I think it's funny that some people think those two would be the same people as in the original even though there's still around 2000 years between War and the original
I cried so much at this film
just so heartbreaking
especially the ending, so powerful.
BEST MOVIE THIS SUMMER.....and what a summer this was.
Didn't mention one of the best scenes. When the starved orangutan was getting lashed and Caesar emotionally cracked, leading to Lake standing up for him. That whole progression of events was my favorite part of this movie.
Just saw it.Best movie ever made.I was so so so close to cry at the end
I know it’s such a small detail but when Maurice finally talks at the very end of the movie after both movies before when he didn’t say a word it made me smile
I SWEAR BABY, I'VE NEVER COME THIS EARLY BEFORE!
Uncle Ryan Michael Scott?
Uncle Ryan No, that's what he said.
King of Stop-Motion: Ray Harryhausen
King of CGI: Andy Serkis
Jeremy looking hella fine
Анджелина Иванова he's a good looking guy😍
The scene where the Colonel is explaining what happened to and what he did to his son, and you see Caesar's face, his eyes clearly full of tears-give Andy Serkis a fucking award! And also, the little girl, Maurice names her Nova. Nova is the girl in the original if I'm not mistaken.
Why's the background red?
tobey Maguire was better...
Jerrick Drew w
The Vagabond Oh yeah! Spoiler reviews are usually the blue background! Good catch!
Came for this
And why did he spoil Firefly. I just started watching it...
this film is beautiful. just saw it. so emotional and brilliant. Cesar is an impressive leader.
Jeremy shave man I thought you dressed up as caesar for the video
NO, grow out your beard and get a haircut
Lol
Only pussies shave their face.
@nicholas borg LOL
Great trilogy. Every movie felt different enough from the previous one and progressed from each story to the next. Great stuff.
Damn it. The whole movie I was thinking he would die then just as I started to think he will survive, HE FUCKING DIES! ffs xD
Matthew Gilligan Thats exactly what I was thinking during the whole film and had that exact same thought the end.
DAMMIT CAESAR!
One subtle detail I liked about this trilogy is Ceasar becoming more human as the films progressed. He starts out in Rise learning how to walk and say his first words, in Dawn he talks but still struggles a bit, so he uses sign language to communicate with apes, but in this one he prefers to talk (and does it pretty fluently most of the time) even when his fellow apes are speaking in signs.
There was the stupid ass guard and unlikely plot to get his keys and the deus ex avalanche that wiped out a thousand humans all of a sudden
This is how you do a prequel that explains its original counterpart, Ridley Scott you should learn from Matt Reeves next time you want to give us a confusing prequel to your Alien franchise.
Yup! Prometheus and Alien Covenant were both convoluted.
Prometheus wasn't convoluted. Covenant on the other hand, he made the mistake of listening to Aliens fans.
Am I the only one that was disappointed a bit in War for the Planet of
the Apes? It's not that it was a bad film.. It's still very moving and
beautifully shot. I understand the sub text and composition.. But the
execution was overall a bit lazy with the exception of a few very
touching moments that were quite effective. And the one comedic relief
(obviously the 'Bad Ape') felt so forced into what was an otherwise
humorless and depressing film.
I get that 'War' was the conclusion of Caesar and finishing what he
started and they did a good job as far as bringing his story to a close,
but with that the third installment lost a lot of its charisma and
charm. I think it would be better viewed shortly after watching the
first two like it's one long movie because it definitely doesn't stand
alone or have the re-watch ability like the others do a bit. In the end I
guess it's what I did expect and was hoping for more of the unexpected?
Jeremy, the little girl in this movie is Nova. Nova was the main human female in the original Planet of the Apes film, so pretty sure they're trying to tie it together, even if that makes no sense at all chronologically speaking.
It's one of my favourite movie trilogies and imo War is best but all 3 movies are fucking great.
The movie had a lot of elements of a war. It had 2 mayor battles, slavery, rivalry between more than 2 forces fighting (humans, bad humans and apes) for their own good, they were looking to kill each other and many other aspects of war. Maybe the title "War" is no the most precise for the film itself but it definitely took place in a war.
2017 best movies Logan, war planet of the ape so far i wonder Thor 3
jack Vegas Dunkirk will be kn that list next week
geromino97 true to that i been wanting to see that one good choice my friend hopefully it is a good one
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2?
The relationship between Nova and Maurice is so beautiful
Tears in my eyes, f... This is fantastic movie, oscar.
Planet Of The Apes Trilogy (Rebooted) & the Kung Fu Panda series are some of the most under-appreciated series' of films. Seriously, KFP 1 & 2 are brilliant 'Masterpiece animations, & the 3rd film rapped it up so well -- While Rise & Dawn are also 'Masterpiece films -- War is so damn emotional & fantastic as well, IMO.
I hope this movie gets a sequel. Cause it should continue.
Brutal Slasher I thought that also. Will see. I just want Matt Reeves to direct again. He does a great job.
This trilogy is just phenomenal combining top tier special effects and strong storytelling. If anyone is to remake the original, I think that Matt Reeves and this talented film crew would do an amazing job.
Ryan Benitez No doubt.
Because 4th installments are always the best...
Ben Runsdorf Depends.
Caesar’s son from the 2nd movie, Blue Eyes, needed to die for several reasons: first, the Colonel could kill Blue Eyes and plausibly think he was Caesar. But mainly, he dies for 2 necessary narrative reasons:
We had a relationship with Blue Eyes. So we feel his loss almost as deeply as Caesar. It helps the viewer sympathize with Caesar’s decision to pursue the colonel. We are on board with his revenge mission because we also lost Blue Eyes.
The last part is, Blue Eyes learned about patience and peace from Caesar in the last movie. If the Colonel only killed Caesar’s wife and Cornelius, Blue Eyes would certainly accompany his father, and either act as a 2nd Maurice, OR he’d try to dissuade Caesar from leaving.
If Blue Eyes stayed to lead the apes to their new home, it makes them being caught more difficult to sell.
I hate that Blue Eyes died, but he kind of had to in order for the story to happen.
They should stop here cause this movie is amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Actually the way I see it, this is still part of the original movie line up. Let me try to sum it up. In the first movie, on the news it says that astronauts have left for space including Taylor (which could have just meant to be a small Easter egg and nothing significant, but let's just say it wasn't for now). And then the whole new trilogy unfolds with most of humanity either dying off or devolving while apes slowly begin to evolve and learn and insane speeds and so they eventually are the dominant species of earth. Hundreds of years later, the astronauts that originally took off in the first movie were in space so long that time on earth moved faster then time in the ship, plus the astronauts were in cryosleep for a while. They then land on what is thought to be a foreign planet with life on it in where apes are dominant and humans are mute. Taylor then finds out that he's actually in a far far future of earth when he sees a destroyed Statue of Liberty. Then beneath the planet of the apes happens where the only remainders of smart humans are found underground worshipping a nuke called alpha and omega which could have been theoretically been developed by the army under the same name in war of the planet of the apes. So that whole movie transpires with at the end, the main two good apes travel back in time using the original ship that the astronauts used to go back in time. This is what completely rewrites the original ceaser story from rise dawn and war. They show up in like the 60s or something and tell the world where they come from and what it's like. This makes it so the world isn't afraid of apes because of how friendly they are.the two apes have a child named ceasar (different ceasar than the original presumably) who ends up blending into an ape slavery camp and teaches the ape and they have an uprising to the evil humans. Years go by and the apes are still living in peace with other humans. But then an event that is almost exactly like what koba did happens with a gorilla named Aldo. He tries to get the humans to become slaves but ceasar won't allow it so he conspires against ceasar. Aldo ends up dying the exact same way koba did but in a tall tree. It even ends with the line "ape not kill ape~ you are not ape" and ceasar ends up giving humans full freedom and the movie ends with a future in which apes and human coexist peacefully. Which is what makes the last 3 movies a timeline rewrite of rise dawn war because of how the two apes went back and slightly changed the timeline
This movie isn't even out yet??
Borat69able yes it is lol on eastcoast and im walking to my theater ad we speak on westcoast 7 pm showing
Borat69able I saw it yesterday. The whole trilogy in theaters.
Akira Kurursa Still feels Jeremy should have waited a couple days to release this. Doesn't make any difference for me anyway, doesn't come out in Australia for another 2 weeks.
Borat69able Oh well then I get you there. Probably based on the release date for the states.
The theater I went had it early
Personally, I'm not bothered by the title for a couple of reasons. "War" isn't always about nonstop battles. The Cold War is a perfect example. It went on for decades without there ever really being a battle. Secondly, I think it also works well as a metaphor in this film, with both Caesar and the Colonel fighting internal wars within themselves as well as being at war with each other. Just my thoughts 👌
Maurice is sooo cute!! Does anyone else agree or is it just me??
Very adorable. I wish I was adopted too.
He is one of my favorite characters ever in cinema.
Couldn't one argue that since it's the humans fighting for what's remaining on Earth after such a massive pandemic, it's their War for The Planet of the Apes? Maybe the title implies that the apes already won, and the humans are fighting for a piece of what they've already lost.
