The film continues the plot of the previous episode. The virus called "ape flu" created by humans quickly swept the world and killed more than 90% of human beings. The entire human civilization can be said to collapse overnight. And the cause of the demise of mankind this time was not the invasion of aliens, nor the nuclear war, nor the artificial intelligence derived from computers, but the deadly virus developed by scientific lunatics and crazy rich men. It can be said that humans personally He was sent to the grave by himself. At this time, the apes headed by "Caesar", the source of the virus, are like human beings who ate golden apples. They opened up their wisdom and gradually formed a tribe with "Caesar" as the leader. They learned to make and use tools. They started collective hunting and group activities of division of labor and cooperation. The beginning of the film recorded this mighty and shocking hunting activity. This series of scenes proves the birth of ape civilization. Although the tools and tactics are quite primitive, they are enough to prove that they are transforming towards them.
In the conversation between Caesar and his right-hand man Coba, Caesar revealed his nostalgia for mankind. Suddenly a group of uninvited guests broke into the sphere of influence of the apes, and the long-lost humans reappeared. The sound of gunshots broke the tranquility of the entire forest. It also made countless apes realize that humans still have survivors, and also made several uninvited guests. Seeing the apes that are gradually socializing, and the leader among them, Caesar’s unparalleled boldness and deterrence, as well as the supremacy of the apes, what surprised them is that they actually spoke the language from Caesar’s mouth, this The symbol of human civilization and wisdom, unexpectedly roared from the mouth of a gorilla covered in fur and unusually strong and strong. The look and power and the shock caused by this incident almost scattered everyone’s souls and panic. Those who fled quickly passed the news to the human gathering place in San Francisco, and the apes followed along all the way and found the human fortress and a large number of human survivors.
It can be said that the outbreak of the war between humans and apes has been doomed from this moment. If Caesar did not have the kindness in the first time and directly slaughtered that group of human squads by thunder means, then Koba's betrayal would follow. And the all-out war that it caused will not break out, but he was raised by a kind and good person since he was a child, and he is doomed to have a gentle and magnanimous side of his character. The bottom line that will easily go to war. But anyone can see that his bottom line is nothing in front of Coba, who hates humans. He also opened up the wise Coba and directed a good show of betraying and blaming mankind with his own hands. The fall of the gun became the fuse for the outbreak of the war. At this time, everything was irreversible, and the angry crowd of apes broke the fortress of mankind. However, the protagonist of the story, Caesar, will not fall so easily. He who calmed the rebellion and clearly recognized the situation at hand, left all the audience with a firm, domineering and shocking look.
Gradually perfected and approached perfect motion capture technology, so that many apes in this film, especially the movements and expressions of several important characters, have been portrayed in a very vivid and vivid manner, a completely virtual image, and a person from the outside. The unprecedented plump leader of the ape clan in the inner world is exquisitely presented in front of the audience. The sophisticated 3D special effects technology makes all this look more realistic and extremely visually impactful. The mood of the audience of the "Caesar" created around this special effect followed ups and downs, and was gradually infected by his charm. The story left Will Roman, who is considered to be the adoptive father of Caesar, also left James. •Franco, a big name, can be said that the virtual Caesar has become the true core of the story, and he himself has lost a piece of fetters and scruples about humans. It can be said that if Will Roman is one of the survivors, this The war may not break out, and the story can only be written in another way, but it’s hard to say that these Hollywood screenwriters dare to toss about anything. They are unbelievable, and they may come out in the next sequel. What moth comes, it is not impossible to make a duel between Caesar and Will Roman, everything is looking forward to the next episode.
When "Old Fox" relaunched the series by taking advantage of the prequel of the big shot, the previous work of this series was released in 2011, and it became the dark horse of the year with not a huge investment, and stayed at the end of the story for the sequel. Foreshadowing, the mass extinction of mankind during the "War of Dawn" not only constitutes the most popular "end-of-the-day sentiment" of the moment, the virus has brought destruction to mankind and brought the apes the opportunity to replace mankind to rule the earth. And the wonderful thing about this film is that, compared to watching "Planet of the Apes" many years ago, the audience knows that human beings are finally destroyed in the war with apes, but the directors did not turn their feelings to one side. After all, in the original work, the apes No different from human beings, the dark side of power struggles and fights, hierarchical social classes, and intrigue remain. Therefore, "War of Dawn" is definitely not a game of "human" orthodoxy or "ape" orthodoxy, but a story about the desire and efforts of two intelligent races for peace, but they are ultimately strangled in the conspiracy of several individuals. And the friendship and efforts of the leaders of both sides are so weak and small in the face of the big picture. This is not a confrontation between humans and other races, nor is it the old routine of non-my races whose hearts must be different. The battle between apes and human races is just a coat. The core is the history of war that runs through the entire human race. As a smart race, it is still unable to Avoid the tragedy of killing each other.
