Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes
Categories:
No one can stop the reign.
Overview
Several generations in the future following Caesar's reign, apes are now the dominant species and live harmoniously while humans have been reduced to living in the shadows. As a new tyrannical ape leader builds his empire, one young ape undertakes a harrowing journey that will cause him to question all that he has known about the past and to make choices that will define a future for apes and humans alike.

Saying this isn’t as good as the last trilogy would be to do it a disservice, as it is a marvellous new entry into the long running franchise that pushes it into new, yet familiar territory. Wes Ball present a marvellously realised future, and once more the Apes themselves are presented with effects that make you forget that they aren’t real.
A solid start to a hopeful new trilogy – I want to see more of this phase in the conflict between man and ape, and ape and ape.
