If the tank shot in Dawn of the Planet of the Apes left you slack-jawed, then get ready to have your mind blown by even more simian fighting in its sequel, War for the Planet of the Apes. As the third film in the reboot series, War has moved past the events depicted in the original films and allows returning director Matt Reeves to blaze his own path to ape supremacy. Caesar, it seems, is still destined to lead the way, but he learned in Dawn that humans and apes are capable of a range of interactions, leaving the temporary reconciliation at the end of Battle for the Planet of the Apes as a plausible ending for the reboot as well.

DAWN OF THE PLANET OF THE APES: An Exceptional Blockbuster

Dawn Of The Planet Of The Apes is the sequel to Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes (2011), which heralded the latest reboot of the Planet Of The Apes franchise. Dawn presents a story much more intelligent than you’d expect of a blockbuster, its creators having put an overwhelming amount of effort into creating a world that is believable, into creating a wholly new culture for characters that are unique and relatable, furry or not. Rise was good, but Dawn is even better.
