A Modern Moron Movie Review

"Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes" weaves the bizarre fabrics of fantasy and reality into an unknown attire that cloaks the audience. 

Screenwriter Josh Friedman puts us into a world where the unimaginable is tangible and apes rule the world. A virus infecting the minds of both humans and apes vastly benefits the apes. Nova, aka Mae, marvelously portrayed by Freya Allan is teamed with Raka, the orangutan and the chimpanzee Noa, because of war. Raka is sly witted, funny and heartful. 

Noa's the grandson of Ceasar, a renowned chimpanzee interictal in uniting different breeds of apes and coexisting with humans. His funeral Pyra at the beginning of the movie sets the tone for Noa to continue the family legacy of unity among all.   

Noa and Raka slowly learn their human counterpart Nova is equally as smart as they are, if not more intelligent. All three learn from each other. 

The special effects and make-up team did a fantastic job, and the story is a well-orchestrated planet amidst a universe of monkey madness.  

Anybody who liked 2001s "Planet of the Apes" starring Mark Wahlberg would probably dig this months "Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes," This movie series began in 1968 and the special effects have always been impressive, yet the dialogue stands out the most. The latest installment of "Planet of the Apes" doesn't disappoint, three stars easy for this flick. The second row, B7 at Airport Cinemas is my new favorite way to watch movies.
