"This movie is great when it focuses on the apes, and boring as shit when it focuses on any of the humans that aren't Gary Oldman (who adds yet another great over-the-top villain performance to his rsum here). Caesar and Koba are the highlights here their relationship is riveting, but the focus of the film keeps getting hijacked by Jason Clarke's character, who just doesn't have that much to him I like him as an actor, but especially when his screentime is taking time away that we could have been spending with the apes, I just feel all the energy and momentum get sapped out of the story. At times it feels like a series that's just spinning its wheels between two much more eventful installments. As is true of all of the reboot series, the effects are fabulous, and Michael Giacchino's score is typically great." ~KBM

"I really can't remember much of this movie except that it's the buildup for War. The humans in this movie are rather forgettable and wow, I can't remember anything about this movie. There's nothing particularly bad though." ~JONA

"This was an interesting look at an attempt at cooperation between humans and apes. Besides Caesars few friends in the last two original Apes movies, there was no semblance of the two sides trying to coexist. In Dawn, a group of humans need to cooperate with the apes in order to make some medicine. The interactions between the two sides presented some heartwarming moments and equally interesting tension. And then you have crazy Koba stirring up trouble. Koba was a fun character in the fact that his motivations made perfect sense, but he was also batshit crazy and violent. He was also fairly smart, using an act as a dumb, primitive ape to lure humans into a false sense of security. As expected, however, any positive traits became outweighed by the negative. Any logical message he had for his comrades became wiped out by his craving for murder. I swear, what is it with leaders named Caesar hiring untrustworthy generals?

Traviss Opinion: We were on vacation and took a break in the hotel room to watch some TV. FX happened to be showing Rise and Dawn, so we decided to watch them. Travis was enjoying Dawn, but he was too hyper to sit still. He climbed up for a bit here and there to watch, but then hopped down and started running around like a nut again." ~Stifled

"Project Purity can and will be operational. This is just the beginning. I've got one of the portable fusion generators up and running, but it's just enough to power the emergency lighting and a couple of other systems. Look at me, getting all sentimental. There's time for that when our work is done. You think I'm going to let YOU stop me? After all I've been through?" ~James
