The war between humans and apes is imminent.
And this is the last war. Man wins or ape wins?
In fact, the fuse of the war has been ignited, and it is also the intrusion of humans on apes that accelerates the war.
In fact, Caesar did not want to participate in this war, and tried to avoid the outbreak of this war. Militarily, Caesar was a qualified leader who thought most about the safety and stability of apes, not the hatred between humans and apes.
When the special forces entered the home of the apes, in the artillery fire, both sides suffered heavy losses, especially the special forces, only a few prisoners remained. When everyone cheered and executed the remaining human beings, Caesar let them go. The act of benevolence and righteousness was also a strategy of seeking peace, but it brought heavier losses to Caesar.
After returning, the special forces used the rebellious Luca to find Caesar's hiding place. The colonel also killed Caesar's wife and son, giving Caesar the heaviest blow. Caesar was also really angry, and vowed to take revenge on him - the colonel.
Everything is not so simple, not a simple battle of revenge. Caesar and a few other orangutans went to the colonel's place, and the rest of the orangutans went to their new home. Who knows, the special forces encountered those orangutans on their way to their new homes, and arrested them all as coolies and built high walls. In the end, Caesar was also caught. Vengeance has become helpless, the lives of other orangutans are still unknown, and your own situation is not good. If you were Caesar, what would you do?
Caesar did this:
Observe the situation around the camp, and after seeing the purpose of the colonel, fight for food and water for everyone so that everyone can live. But he was suffering from hunger and cold. This is the practice of a leader, a great leader.
And great leaders are often surrounded by reliable followers who watch the captured chimps and try to rescue them. With the persistence of so many soldiers, how can so many orangutans be rescued?
Here's how they do it:
First of all, I discovered the underground tunnel that had been left, and then relied on the steps of the orangutan to measure the position of the exit passage, and also considered the safe departure of the little orangutan. After stealing the guard key, the little orangutan was successfully rescued. Tunnel escape.
It can be said that a group of orangutans staged a wonderful "prison break".
This battlefield is not as grand and shocking as imagined, but more about the wisdom and unity of the imprisoned orangutans. As Caesar said, only when apes are united can they be invincible and victorious. And this "prison break" also shows the power of unity.
In fact, until the end, you will find out. In the end, human beings were not destroyed by apes. The troops led by the colonel were destroyed by the northern troops, while the troops from the north were destroyed by avalanches. In the end, mankind lost to nature. The apes survived and went to their new home.
This ending was beyond my expectations. Originally thought it would be a big battle, with heavy artillery fire and heavy deaths, and finally the apes won. But it didn't. It was more about how the soldiers of the army "bullied" the apes, making them work as coolies, not giving them food or water, and whipping them with whips. Just like a concentration camp, it seems that the objects are not apes, but more like humans of different races. There is discrimination and hatred.
As for the design of the finale, I think it is very interesting. I thought that the victorious northern troops were cheering and celebrating, but unexpectedly, an avalanche ended the carnival. I wonder if director Matt Reeves is also admonishing people not to be enemies with nature and animals, otherwise, they will eventually be destroyed by nature. Everything should be in harmony. Whether it is humans, apes, or other animals, existence is reasonable. The balance of nature is never aimed at eliminating one party, but seeking common survival, common development, and common progress.
Unexpectedly, Caesar's passing.
When he looked at the new home in front of him, the apes were playing together, laughing and laughing together. There were mountains and water, flowers and trees, and a peaceful piece.
Finally, the apes have found a new home, a wonderful place. And he also left this world quietly, I think, Caesar's departure is also a happy ending for this war between man and ape.
From now on, there will be no more war, only peace.
