"Battle of the Apes": a raccoon dog

The fifth part of the Planet of the Apes series.

I admire myself. I even read all five of them. Although I dozed off for 15 minutes in this film.

Sleep for a while, but it doesn't affect the plot. The plot tells the final battle between humans and orangutans, and Caesar still hopes to change the future.

The investment in this film is less than the previous one. Seeing the title of the movie "Decisive Battle", the scene must be spectacular, but it is not. It's an indoor drama. The last one was circled in a few buildings. This outdoor scene turned out to be an indoor scene. Too fake. And the battle is not fierce, just like a child. The audience who paid for the movie theater must regret it.

Although the scenes are fake, the film still explores profound themes. Orangutans and humans are the same raccoon dogs, there is no difference. There is only eternal war, not eternal peace.

At the end of the film, compared to the first part of the film, a perfect reincarnation.

There are five films in total, although some of them are relatively poor, but the coherence is relatively good, and it also gave the film a happy ending. It can be said to be a relatively classic movie series.

The Hollywood directors are really admirable. In the 1970s, such a profound film series could be made. It's not a waste of my time.

Battle for the Planet of the Apes quotes

  • Abe the teacher: No, Aldo, no!

  • Caesar: Ah, if only my mother and father, whom I was too young to remember... If only they'd lived, perhaps they would have taught me if it was right to kill evil so that good shall prevail.

    MacDonald: But you know, Caesar, history shows...

    Caesar: Oh no, no, no. That is human history, not ape history. Ape, never kills ape.
