The Apes rebooted franchise has come to a point where I never thought it could have happened: Becoming a solid trilogy. Because War For The Planet Of The Apes,aside from being the best movie of this rebooted extravaganza,has shown me things I didn't expect a reboot could do,and that is being a magnificent,if not also emotional,conclusion of the trilogy.

The story is probably one the more serious I saw in a long time,with unexpectedly poignant moments and some of the most remarkable action scenes of 2017. With each passing year,the motion capture gets phenomenal every time,and so does this one,being a little bit more detailed.

The acting was terrific: Andy Serkis as Caesar is strong as always,Woody Harrelson as the nefarious Colonel is,well,nefarious,and luckily,Steve Zahn as Bad Ape didn't ruin the movie. You could have some funny moments here and there,but honestly,i expected worse.

And let's not forget about the astounding score by Michael Giacchino...I can talk for hours about that piece of musical wonder. I was also impressed by how the cinematography worked in this movie. In the end,if you thought Logan was the best movie of the year,well,you can think again.

War For The Planet Of The Apes is a delightful conclusion to an already solid trilogy,with breathtaking visual effects,an unexpectedly dark and poignant story and a score by Michael Giacchino that puts the webhead in silence (and that will probably become part of your nightmares.
