I can't watch this enjoyable movie without mentioning how amazing the CGI and the special effects.. for the story line it is expected some how but still enjoyable and I can re-watch it again.When I watched this movie, I understood that time passed from the first movie and second movie of this series but it wasn't clear how long it passes.. this movie could be a step to explain a little why humans were captured in the original movie planet of the apes (1968).The "war" is indeed for the "planet of the apes".

Good lord this was slow. I do appreciate "slow" films, foreign stuff, art stuff, character stuff, etc, but this, at its best, is trying to be some inaccessible allegory that I had to struggle to comprehend, or -- it's what it appears to be -- a movie that lost its message through muddled writing and misguided re-writes or heavy handed script doctoring and myopic producing. It just CRAWLS. Aimlessly. This is the third of an ever-worsening series of reboots. The first one was worthy. The second was fun but empty. This third? I'm so glad I followed my instincts and refused to pay a theater ticket to see it. The message or theme is simple, and repeated -- humans are mean spirited savages, apes are noble savages. Yeah, we got it the first time. It's also trying to be a poorly executed morality play on "us vs them," on "natives vs immigrants," and tribalism based on race. There's even a "Wall" featured. In ten years, will any viewer remember what "the wall" was about? Yeah yeah, it's an ever-important message, but it requires better execution and exposition in this day and age. What's next -- GUESS WHO'S COMING TO DINNER, with the groom-to-be the human, and his fiance and parents apes?

Before starting the movie, I did not think at all about having a movie with a movie that is far from the previous episodes, especially the first part. The story space is completely different from the previous sections, as if you were watching another movie. Perhaps this end could have been better. All the glances at the end of the film are the fate of monkeys and humans, especially Caesar. The film could have been more magnificent. For critics, which was enough, but people expect another, I think the film alone is a good film, but it is not a good sequel to the previous films of this series because the viewer sees it with another mentality. There were two previous episodes, even in my opinion the authors of the previous sections, such as Rick Jaffa, were better able to write the script. The film's music is not suitable for action scenes, and most of all it takes classic movies and needs a more epic rhythm. Characterization for Caesar was very appealing in the Rise of the Planet of the Apes, but fell out of the second part of this characterization, but it was better in the third part, but it was no longer as brilliant as the first one. The film has too much dramatic scenes that are not in these films and should focus more on the action scenes of the film than the scenes of Caesar's pain. The movie War for the Planet of the Apes does not just have weaknesses and has many strengths, including good director of action, exciting compilation and ... each of which is important.
