Hey Sean, what’s your favorite 2020s movie that brought a nostalgic franchise back to life?
@@thiagopena3258 Top Gun Maverick of course
I tried Raycon & it didn't wrk for me one peace died out & I exchanged for another one in a different color gues what? The same thing happened again, it wouldn't stay in my ear, it also hurt my ears so that's ny experience with Raycon. If everyone else still like it fine, just giving my little input.
@@catspaw3092 Sorry about that. I have two pairs and haven't had any issues.
One of the best lines of this film is "shit".
HAHAHAHA
🤣🤣
That humour was executed well and Rocka has a lot of good humourous moments too.
Biggest laugh of the film by far!! 🤣😂🤣😂
The trilogy from a few years back is one of the most underrated trilogies of all time, the second movie especially is amazing
its like the Dark knight of the trilogy
Third is my favourite, though I think because the second takes such a huge step from the first film alot of people love it so much, just love the whole vibe of the final film
I remember seeing the 2nd one on my 14th bday
I don't think it's underrated.. it's pretty popular and sits at a pretty good level
@@JacobDean88 Fair enough, I just don't see that many people talk about it, maybe that's just me though
I’m seeing this movie in an hour! Rewatching the Caesar trilogy once again this past week, it just reaffirmed my love for those films. They showcase the ability for big budget movies to both be exciting and incredibly rich in the themes being explored at the same time. I’m not expecting that level of caliber for Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be a worthy successor.
How was it?
How was the movie?
@WolfHuxley-io1qiDefinitely! Great movie, needs a rewatch because so much happens. An epic adventure with a very likeable protagonist. Especially like the lore that they wove into the story
@@Rooiedraak876I’m guessing mutiple ape clans, especially ceasar are wiped out mosty?
WHAT A WONDERFUL DAY!
🦍🗣️
While watching the movie I was genuinely waiting for that line the whole time
@@evan9902 How was it?
@@evan9902 i was like Peter griffin when he said the line
@@ajnunez8788 exactly
Just got out of the theater I loved it its visually stunning has interesting characters and expands the lore very well and honors Caesar as well
I can’t believe Wes Ball seems to have knocked it out of the park
Indeed… indeed…
He seemed to know what he was talking about in interviews which made me trust him I didn’t really trust Disney but I trusted him.
You can thank the writers since these were the same writers that were involved in the Cesare Trilogy.
The Maze Runner movies were good, much better than the books they were based on
just walked out of it and that ending gave me the biggest smile on my face and had chills go down my body I am so ready for the next one.
We see. Nothing is set it stone..
Disney owns the IP ans ther wher open this is just a money Grab for them. Ther dont care about this like ther do for marvel.
If this movie doesnt bring back the mondy 100 perfekt ther wo t be a sequel
@@pascalfernandes6957😐
Great spelling, dude.
@@Jdecam you my son nikka
I am so so so sooooooo excited to check this one out Friday! I wasn’t a fan of the trilogy in middle school, but having rewatched them earlier this year, I came to appreciate them much more and even putting Dawn among my top 50 all time favorite films. I am so pumped for this new entry and hope it just means more apes goodness coming our way.
I really liked Rise, Dawn, and War but this one left me a little cold. It's pretty slow for long periods of time, overly long, and I wasn't a huge fan of how the focus was shifted back onto a human character. Over the course of the previous trilogy the emphasis transitioned from humans onto the apes. I wanted that to continue here.
I didn't think it was a bad film by any means but I'd rank it lower than the previous three films.
How was anyone knowledgeable of technical filmmaking not impressed with Wes Ball's direction of the Maze Runner trilogy?
I noticed.
I think this films biggest flaw is not introducing its villain, the Proximus Caesar, earlier. Minor spoilers, but he only comes in around the third act, while his and Noa's relation is actually the most interesting dynamic in the movie. He could've maybe reached Koba's status as an awesome antagonist, but it squanders its potential.
But in total, I think it's a solid addition. If I had to rank the Caesar saga right now, it would be:
4. Rise
3. Kingdom
2. War
1. Dawn
Minor spoiler!
The only thing I would've added is more time with primitive humans and seeing Mae's reaction to them
@@ValihirThe primitive humans were definitely an afterthought and took me out of the experience when they were on screen. If they're so animalistic and primitive, then why are they wearing clothing?
@GodWarsX in the original book they were naked,but I assume for this and the original it would've changed the movies rating
Rise, Dawn and War are some of my favourite movies. Every single element of each film is so good and its a phenomenal and criminally underrated trilogy so i am so happy to hear how good it is and how much the fans are loving it! I was of course very concerned when it got announced but I'm pleased to know Kingdom is just as good as the other films. The story and the themes look great and important and i can't wait to see it!!
Loved the last 2 Apes movies but they were pretty dark (especially War). I'm fine with a more action heavy approach
I hope the set ups aren't JJ Abrams kinda set ups where it's all questions and no answers.
Only vfx shot that stud out at fake looking for me was in our intro to proximas when he does a few fancy swings up to his speech stand. Besides that everything was amazing
Something worth mentioning. I loved the sound of the voices from the apes. Like proximus and raka. Kevin Durand did a amazing job. When I heard Kevin Durand was playing this. I didnt really understand where they were going with proximus with his voice but they did such a good job. I loved Peter Macon as Raka. The big orangutan the big monkey needs to have a deep and loud voice and Peter Macon was a great fit. I never heard of Eka Darville so I never knew Sylva voice but it was also amazing
Hi Sean, it's Ian, who we've met at MegaCon this past year and talked about roller coasters.
The trilogy of the newer Planet Of The Apes movies are one of my favorite trilogies of the past 40 years and your review of Kingdom has made me much more confident about seeing it in the theater. Glad to hear you and many others liked it and can't wait to see it myself.
More consistent than Mission Impossible? This is a good faith question, I understand it can be frustrating to constantly be on the record, and I haven't seen the movie yet
That would depend on where you are counting the Mission Impossible Franchise from.
The "New" MI movies, Ghost Protocol and onwards, have probably been the most consistent set of movies in a movie series. (Not counting trilogies like LotR Trilogy).
But if you count MI as a whole. The franchise saw a huge dip in quality with the 2nd and 3rd film.
@@kingkiller5325 I probably wouldn't group the second and third group together in terms of quality but I agree with your point. That said am I allowed to include the Planet of the Apes movies that came out before Rise? Because most people would agree they're mostly less than stellar, I think we can probably agree to start at Rise and Ghost Protocol for this comparison
@@chadduckenfield7374 I think only the Tim Burton one and Battle would not hold up in term of quality.
I love this franchise!
I love the fact that the actors weren't all A-Listers and they brought their A-game with the material in this film, Owen Teague is so likeable as the main protagonist.
It's the lack of Allister's that make this movie cost less and they could spend more on great chi
Owner Teague and the rest of the cast definitely brought the A-game
Very good film loved it
Just saw it a couple of hours ago. Altough not as good as the Caesar trilogy, I really enjoyed it!
Bro what are u talking about this is the first one not the trilogy we haven’t even got the other instalments yet ur comparing 1 film to a trilogy
@@Walterwhite_cooks I’m just stating that this movie is not as good as either one of the movies in Caesar’s trilogy. I like Rise, War and especially Dawn individually more then Kingdom. I still loved Kingdom tho. Hope that clears it up for you :)
The “What a Wonderful Day” scene was one of the deepest parts in the entire movie. Proximus using Caesar’s words which were originally meant for good and twisting them into something very bad. It also shows how religion can quickly become a cult if it is misinterpreted and people are misled.
I love your reviews and this get me excited for the sequel of the Apes-movies. What would make your reviews even better is, if you turned off your autofocus. Because your hands often get so close to the camera that your face isn't in the focus anymore. As in a good film it's always great when I as an viewer can focus on the essential thing without getting pulled out of the experience.
One thing I found interesting is how Caesar’s teaching could be also be spun into something different, but still positive. And we get to see the seed of that with Raka. Spoilers below…
When Raka dies his last words are “together strong”. When the Caesar quote is “Apes together strong”. So Noa and Mae could take that to mean that apes and humans working together are strong. Instead of the original intent of the quote. So I thought it was really cool that we got to see the moment that the quote may be changed forever. But in a positive way rather than a negative way. As opposed to what Proximus does.
I’m so unbelievably excited to see this all 3 of the movies from last decade are in my top 25 ever but sadly I might not be able to see it for lil while now cuz of circumstances so I hope it’s worth the wait
I’m so happy for Wes ball! I love the maze runner, not everyone does but I do and I thought it made sense for him to direct this movie as he is great with special affects and creating a different world. With the writers coming back, with an underrated director and it’s a movie of a franchise I love, everything just feels perfect. Can’t wait to watch!
Very good and insightful review! I will see the movie this weekend!
As we don't really know the future of these movies and if Wes Ball will be on board to direct the other 2 ( he want to do Legend of Zelda), i understand why people want to already compare it to Caesar trilogy by saying that it doesn't have the same weight. Honestly, i don't know if it will but one thing i know for sure is that Kingdom is like the Rise or the first of Noa's Arc (pun intended) so nobody can't really know the real impact when we will get to the end of this new trilogy (if there is one). Even Wes told that they have ideas to make it bigger, better and more thought provoking. So i will judge it as a stand alone movie and as a big introduction but i will wait to really judge where this new trilogy stand compare to the one before.
I watched it earlier today, and was pleasantly surprised. Going into it, I was a little worried if it could still intrigue me the way the previous trilogy had. I am pleased to say I thoroughly enjoyed it and am excited about what is to come.
That being said, I felt that some elements felt like rehashes from previous installments, and I with the humans were a little more interesting in the movie.
I'll rate this one an 8.5 / 10. It was a good start to a new trilogy in what is my second favorite series of all time. I only hope that the franchise continues this streak.
Always enjoy you’re reviews. Wished I waited for it. I knew better than to watch Jo-Blows but I thought I would give them another chance… and they give away the full plot again.
Seriously guys unless you want to get the movie spoiled for you don’t want their reviews. They have a great channel but every review they give the plot away in what’s meant to be a spoiler free review
Kinda feel like the 3 friends should’ve been traveling, and a little more exploring and wonderment should’ve taken place, I never felt really connected any of the relationships.
This is one of my most anticipated films over the summer !!!
glad this movie is great sean. can't wait to see this in theaters for myself next week
I feel very similar to you about this one. I LOVE the new PotA movies and am SO ecstatic that my 17 & 14yos (1 of each) love them, too! I *thoroughly* enjoyed this one but was telling the kids I kind of have to wait to see what happens with the next one before I really know how I feel about it of can rank it. There is SO much to love in this movie - I love the dynamic of Noa and his friends and mom, the bit the morning after the raid is just breathtaking in how motion capture truly seems to have caught Owen Teague's performance, etc, etc - but I do agree with the "negatives" you mentioned. But, though it may not be as self-contained as Rise and Dawn were, I cannot speak highly enough about how great this 4th installment was!!!
I’m seeing it tomorrow. Can’t wait!
definitely agree with you on this sean. wes ball knows what he is doing for sure and this was an amazing movie.
I hope you do a re-ranking of the Planet of the Apes movies this weekend!
Since seven years ago, you said that Beneath the Planet of the Apes (1970) is the worst and Dawn of the Planet of the Apes (2014) is the best.
What a wonderful day to experience it yesterday. 9/10 💯
Perfect review! Great job at giving a wonderful review that I totally agree with, and at the same time, not spoiling anything
Gonna go see this on Saturday. Greatly looking forward to it. Jeremy Johns didn't like the movie but you and Chris Stuckmann did.
Can’t wait to watch this film on Friday night! The trilogy from the 2010s is one of my favorite movie trilogies of all time. So I am excited to see how they are going to continue it.
Great review! Looking at the movie from the audience perspective past and present
Saw this tonight and thoroughly enjoyed it. I wish we knew more about other clans outside of the ones portrayed in this film. Maybe that will be something we see in the near future!!!
Overall, it’s may bot fully measure up to the last 3 films, but it’s a great addition still :)
Can’t wait for more.
It may not* 😂🤦♂️
I’ve really enjoyed your channel since subscribing! As an ape film fan, I’m wanting to introduce this series to my kids. Do you think it would be beneficial to start by showing the original Planet of the Apes before showing them the Caesar trilogy? I love the original film, but I’m not sure it would translate well with new audiences today.
Just got done watching this. I loved the way they executed it, it’s almost like a better version of the 2001 film
Solid review thx
The environments of Australia in this were stunning!
Great review sean and I am so excited for the next instalment in the kingdom of the planet of apes series!
Just saw the movie (early screening). The first scene of the movie had me invested 100%
I rewatched the 1st movie, and will continue to rewatch the next two(2morrow) in preparation for dis
I definitely wanted to see this the trails looked great
I would have loved if this film had Raka and Proximus debate about Ceasar and his philosophy. Both are right and wrong about him with the way he viewed humanity over the course of his life. It wouldve made for a great 3rd act climax. And further established humanity does not get to reclaim this world. They are like greek or roman philosophers of our own history. They have their own customs and values and entering something of a bronze age for apes. Thats awesome.
Saw it an early access screening. It’s epic!
The visuals for this movie are absolutely amazing.
You nailed it with the opposing perspectives between the characters in the movie and the audience watching the movie. I have minor issues with the ending, but I really enjoyed this movie.
Your review makes me incredibly excited for this movie. I can't wait
Man I’m so happy to hear it’s good, I can’t wait to see it!
On the budget it may also help that it has no “A list “ stars to pay. I wonder if it would jump from 160 million to lets say 250 million range if it had 2/3 “major” stars
Are you gonna do a ranking of all Wes ball movies?
The scene when May basically UFC’d and killing the other talking human to keep him from thwarting her plan, was an “ a ha” moment. Now I see her business. Great Movie ✊
I loved this movie and how they tie in the previous trilogy with the story of this one. The humor was lightly but perfectly sprinkled in and limited which I felt made it more effective. Gonna check it out another time or two in this theater run before buying the 4K.
The planet of the apes trilogy is awesome. I can't wait to see this. One of my most anticipated movies of the year!
Would love to see you talk spoilers
I’d agree with it not having as much dramatic emotion as the last trilogy. However, I think there was a good amount. The fact that these apes are twisting who Caesar was and wondering if Caesar legacy meant nothing. Also, the end with the face off and not knowing if apes and humans will ever be able to live side by side.
Anyone else found it similiar to fellowship of the ring... in terms of world building and story? @sean what are your thoughts?
9/10 ? Okay, Im definitely gonna go watch it this weekend! Also cant wait to watch your Planet of the Apes franchise ranking video 👍
Very good popcorn film. Not as good as dawn and war but still pretty solid entry, and I'm excited to see where they take it.
Nice.
The only so-so CGI scene for me was the gorilla drowning, maybe it will look better at home vs at the theater
one question: how can it be that the planet of the apes-movies had photorealistic animals since the first movie of 2011 that have faces with believable emotions, but The Lion King that came out 8 yeary later fails in putting emotions in the faces of the lions?
I'm Excited This Movie 💯🙏🏾
Sean would you consider the 3 prior films in the trilogy as a top 10 trilogy of all time?
For me, not top 10 but def in the very respectable top 20!
He did a favorite trilogies video back in 2019, the answer is in the video.
@@mikekaraokeWhat are top 10 bets trilogies? There aren’t that many good ones.
I had little to no to even low expectations for this, because the only impression I had on Wes Ball were those horrible Maze Runner movies. However, having seen the movie, I not only think he's redeemed himself, but I'm excited to see what he has to offer with The Legend of Zelda (if Sony doesn't screw him over). The characters were interesting, the visuals are perfect, the music was great, and the cinematography was just stunning. It's nowhere near the quality of Dawn and War, but I found it more interesting than Rise (at least for now). At the end of the day, I'm excited to see what future stories there are to tell in this new age of the franchise.
What a wonderful movie!
3/5 for me. Might be one I need to re-watch soon.
Not showing the galaxy that NOA saw in the telescope pissed me off 😂
Yeah, Mae saw it too but I'm like "Hey, we the audience wants to see it too come on show us."
Why are they building that moment up?
I can't wait for this!
I really liked it. I thought it was always entertaining though the pacing was a little slow for the first half. I like the anthropological elements.
I watched it today and I loved it!! 9/10
Hey Sean I love your videos there are so enjoyable but so I am going to the theaters to see Kingdom Of The Planet Of The Apes and I wanted to ask you can you to a ranking of all 10 movies
That's actually something very interesting about this movie trilogy (Kingdom)... We know the past, but the narrative doesn't, but they know the present, and we as viewers dont. That doesn't happen too often in movie story telling.
Thanks! I enjoyed this review. You didn't spoil anything but managed to pump it up with info.
My expectations are high but I don't expect this to be as good as the Caesar trilogy because Caesar might be the greatest movie character of all time. He's impossible to replace.
What does the debate of Caesar being the greatest character or not have to do with this movie
@@manvirshergill1739because this is a sequel movie that has a main character that is not Caesar…..
@@JD-jz5gu well if the main character doesn't live up to the Caesar character that doesn't mean the film itself won't be as good as the others.
I think it also has a lot to do with Matt Reeves just bieng a better and more experienced Director than Wes Ball.
Also KotPotA is written by Josh Friedman.
Not Rick Jaffa and Amanda silver. Who wrote the first 2 Planet of the Apes movies and Jurassic World.
They are simply better writers than Josh Friedman.
@JD-jz5gu This is not a sequel. The trilogy ended with War.
I can not wait to see this
This film, along with it's squeals are heading exactly where I said they would go, and was called a sexist for it. Jeremy Jahns got it right.
Huh?
I agree but I think Mission Impossible has earned a slot there
It's sad that we won't see ceaser anymore
It's hard to judge this film. It's part of the same universe, but not part of the same trilogy. I can't say it's weaker then the past three because it's not a direct sequel, but the beginning of a new trilogy. As the first film, it's really good.
This Movie was Awesome and it was worth all the Hype!
I am Glad You enjoying Watch Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes Movie & I Have not See Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes Movie Yet
I don't know about others but the fact that Mae just couldn't accept 2 species being together and that humans should remain the dominant species on the planet quite unexpectedly hit hard, can't wait to see more of her
I was floored when I saw the gun behind Mae's back when she saw Noa again I was like "Really bitch? You were going to shoot Noa after all he had done for you? Despite that he doesn't trust you?" Up until the end of the movie he still didn't trust Mae but he hoped she would think that not all apes were bad that's probably why he gave her he necklace with Caesar's symbol on it he wanted her to know apes just wanted peace.
It's out 9th May not today you saw a preview screening
Sean went to a press screening for this film yesterday.
I didn’t really like I felt disappointed . The first three were great dawn especially. I think the direction of the film was messy I got lost in the story . I was confused on how the human civilization still had talking humans that were smart enough to connect to each other . I think the film lacked action aswell . Not enough fight scenes and although Noa was young he seemed very weak physically . I think this was a lead up to the inevitable fact that ape and human will always be at it . 7/10
I saw it yesterday and this might be a hot take, but I liked this movie more than Furiosa. It’s just better. 🤷🏻♂️
Please rank the Goosebumps movies and shows
I haven't seen them. TV shows are very difficult to rank because they require watching soooo much.
@@SeanChandlerTalksAbout understand that
Are you gonna do a spoiler review as well or are you just gonna talk about spoilers during the ranking?
The screenwriter is writing the fantastic four, so that gives me hope
I loved this movie I thought the new characters were interesting. It's just super entertaining.
I really loved the movie
Do you think the film could make me cry?
Is there a spoiler review coming?
