It's a very good movie, but someone in the marketing department made a title error.1) There is no war, it's a skirmish. 3) The skirmish is not for the Planet of the Apes, it's for what's probably just a local tribe.Still a good movie, though.

Just watched again on HBO and decided to take a look at the IMDB page. After reading a few of the 1 star reviews I see that the movie is the victim of a right wing smear campaign.

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.

War for the Planet of the Apes starts of a with an exhilarating battle scene in the forest between apes and humans. The humans are no match to the now battle hardened apes led by Caesar who shows the human survivors mercy and offers them a truce.However the soldiers led by The Colonel (Woody Harrelson) and aided by a few of Koba's surviving ape supporters, attack Caesar's fortress killing his wife and son. Caesar swears revenge but finds himself imprisoned with the rest of the apes who are treated as slaves having to build a wall. The humans are still affected by Simian flu which makes some of them mute. A mute girl, a zoo monkey and a few of Caesar's allies must mount a rescue attempt of the imprisoned apes so Caesar can take them to a desert paradise.The story may have inspiration from Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness with the Colonel character. However after a promising beginning this becomes a dull, stupid film. The story is clunky, illogical and ponderous. As the final part of a trilogy that promised so much, I thought they might deliver a conceptually interesting ending but that was too much to hope for.
