The third part of the newly rebooted PLANET OF THE APES franchise, WAR FOR THE PLANET OF THE APES reunites the team of Matt Reeves in the director's chair and Any Serkis in the mo-cap suit, merging their significant talents to take the APES series to the next level. Considering the buzz that's built around this one it appears that WAR is the pinnacle of what was started with RISE and elevated by DAWN. Serkis returns in the role of Ape leader Caesar, flanked by fellow actors Woody Harrelson, Steve Zahn, Judy Greer, Karin Konoval and Terry Notary in a story that looks to take itself as literal as the title would suggest and lead us closer to the film that started it all in 1968.
WAR FOR THE PLANET OF THE APES is currently sitting at a certified 94% fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes and our own Chris Bumbray gave it a 9/10, saying "…WAR FOR THE PLANET OF THE APES is among the best films of the year, and a blueprint for how movies made on this scale should be made. It's gorgeous to look at and exciting, but it’ll also hit you on an unexpectedly emotional level – and stick with you after." That's a hell of a recommendation.
