In this Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes review, we dive deep into how Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes redefines the iconic franchise and emerges as a perfect summer blockbuster.

When the movie was first announced, skepticism was high. Could Wes Ball, known for the Maze Runner series, truly follow in the footsteps of Matt Reeves? While the Maze Runner films were better than many YA adaptations, Wes Ball wasn’t the obvious choice to continue the Apes saga. Even the initial trailers, with their high production value and impressive motion capture performances, didn’t fully hint at the monumental impact this film would have.

But boy, were we in for a surprise! Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes is not just a continuation but an epic reckoning of the 2010s Apes trilogy. It offers a thoughtful and vigorously considered outlook on the aftermath of Caesar’s story, expanding the world and exploring the ramifications of his legacy decades on. The film delves into the clash between apes and humanity, and the diverse interpretations of Caesar’s teachings, twisted by time like a centuries-long game of telephone.

Wes Ball has truly outdone himself, introducing a captivating new protagonist in Owen Teague’s Noa and setting up a new era for the Planet of the Apes franchise. This film stands as a staggering, Apocalypto-esque odyssey for this decade, with Apes never being stronger. The complexities of Caesar's legacy are large but twisted in this coming-of-age story of truth and lies, knowledge and power.

Prepare to be blown away by the breathtaking visual feast that is Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes. It's the Star Wars: A New Hope for the Apes franchise, leading the charge into a new era with a magnificent narrative and stunning visuals. Enjoy this kingdom of the planet of the apes review!
