'War' was fantastic and compelling story telling from start to finish and rounds out this solid trilogy in grand fashion. Draw dropping motion capture and beautiful cinematography abound... and I truly hope director Matt Reeves is not done making these movies but if he is.

.. I'm completely satisfied.
