      Shadow and Act Staff Shadow and Act The fact that “Dawn of The Planet of The Apes” is a summer tent-pole with a brain and a conscience shouldn’t be this refreshing... Sep 14, 2022 Full Review Dwight Brown National Newspaper Publishers Association Dawn of the Planet of the Apes is still the best big budget summer movie of 2014. Mar 21, 2017 Full Review David Sims AV Club Dawn is not interested in staging conflict for the sake of it, and the misunderstandings and tensions that drive the plot don't always feel like contrivances. Sep 22, 2016 Full Review Don Shanahan Every Movie Has a Lesson "Dawn of the Planet of the Apes" maintains a credible tone of seriousness over farce while operating as evocative post-apocalyptic science fiction. Rated: 5/5 Apr 7, 2024 Full Review Sean Axmaker Stream on Demand Matt Reeves... delivers both action spectacle and character drama, and he rightfully centers the entire film on Caesar, the noble leader who understands the best and worst of humanity ... Oct 27, 2023 Full Review Keith Garlington Keith & the Movies There is some great action, awesome effects, and the performances are strong (none better than the stunning work of Andy Serkis). Rated: 3.5/5 Aug 20, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

      Ryland C Man, I just loved it! While it’s not as a good as the first in my opinion, I still was amazed by it! The action is so good! The actors were amazing! And the CGI is still great! I don’t know what to say, Planet of the Apes is breath taking and so far an amazing franchise! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 05/31/24 Full Review Jordan S This sequel takes everything that Rise did well, and made it great. The motion capture on the apes is stellar and the interactions between the apes and humans are improved upon in this film. The stakes of the story are set up very well and the climax is both entertaining and dramatic. Overall, Dawn is a worthy sequel to an amazing reboot. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 05/28/24 Full Review Chris H A great sequel that does more than the original reboot could. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 05/27/24 Full Review Audience Member Definetley a must-watch for fans of the franchise Rated 4 out of 5 stars 05/24/24 Full Review Milox B "La planète des singes : L'affrontement" est un excellent film visuel et narratif. Les décors sont d'une beauté saisissante, créant une atmosphère immersive qui transporte les spectateurs dans un monde post-apocalyptique où la nature a repris ses droits. Chaque scène est un tableau vivant, avec des paysages détaillés et des effets spéciaux à couper le souffle. La performance d'Andy Serkis en tant que César est tout simplement magistrale. Grâce à la Motion Capture, Serkis parvient à donner à son personnage une profondeur émotionnelle. Sa performance est le cœur du film, captivant les spectateurs à chaque instant. Le film porte un message puissant sur la paix, la guerre, et la coexistence entre l'espèce humaine et les singes. Il explore les thèmes de la loyauté, de la trahison, et de la lutte pour la survie. Les conflits que les personnages doivent faire face ajoutent une dimension philosophique et éthique qui touche profondément les spectateurs. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 05/19/24 Full Review Steven C I will give 6⭐ if possible. I really like how the story tells about war of the two different species but somehow, even the same species also fight each other. This is very true to our nature.
