This is a terrible movie, I don't know how anyone can say otherwise. The first 2 hours of this movie is just wandering around on an adventure to find some apes that were taken. That's it. Not exactly an edge of your seat action/adventure movie the previous editions had.
There are some interesting points but it gets extremely boring to watch the main ape characters speak in broken sentences for 2.5 hours.
Then we get to the climax and it's over in about 5 minutes with the simple task of going in through an air vent. Then their plan is to blow the wooden gates to flood the vault. Maybe closing the doors was over looked.
The directors and writers completely disregard simple physics and the audience is given that a 15' sea dam breaking is going to somehow flow upwards 200' and flood the entire vault. Sorry, nope.
Overall 2/10 for the simple CGI. Hopefully the director and writer are exposed for this mess and we can not have them work again for another few years. It takes real talent to get a large budget movie with an established history and junk it up this bad. Most 7/10 reviewers are embarrassed to admit they fell asleep watching.
