Review of War for the Planet of the Apes (2017) by M W — 24 Oct 2017

My god, what schmaltz! Every character in this movie cried at least once, and even the villain (almost)! And oh those apes are sensitive souls, pure beings of light hidden underneath thick fur. If they became any sweeter they would turn to pure sugar.

I thought I was going to be sick and spent the last hour squirming while being told how to feel every moment by the canned Hollywood background music. Ugh. I almost cried myself knowing I'd thrown away good money on this garbage.

This movie might be ok for children's entertainment, but I don't see how any halfway intelligent adult could like it. The last Apes movie was much better, and the original puts this misdirected mistake to shame.
