Director Wes Ball breathes new life into the global, epic franchise set several generations in the future following Caesar's reign, in which apes are the dominant species living harmoniously and humans have been reduced to living in the shadows. As a new tyrannical ape leader builds his empire, one young ape undertakes a harrowing journey that will cause him to question all that he has known about the past and to make choices that will define a future for apes and humans alike.

Critics Consensus

Carving out a new era for The Planet of the Apes with lovable characters and rich visuals, Kingdom doesn't take the crown as best of the franchise but handily justifies its continued reign.

An astounding vision, profound writing and originality are missing in this pretender. It’s a shallow knockoff that can’t carry the weight of the legacy it inherited.

Filmspotting

If you ranked [the four main characters] on how compelling they are, it arguably would be inverse to how much screen time they get.

Rated: 2.5/5

Robbie Smith

London Evening Standard

It’s visuals, not words, that this film excels at and as it builds to its (rather far-fetched) conclusion it whips you along.

Rated: 3/5

The Movie Cricket

“Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes” reveals itself to be a stirring piece of science fiction, as well as a deft allegory about the dangers of power and the conundrum of knowing who to trust.

Rated: 3.5/4

Dave Golder

Radio Times

It's a decent enough romp with spectacular action and engaging characters, but lighter and fluffier than its immediate predecessors, with a formulaic, episodic plot.

Rated: 3/5

For the Win (USA Today)

This one feels most like Rise of the Planet of the Apes in that there’s so much to like, but it feels like the best of this new Apes chapter will be told down the road.

Great makeup and acting. Storyline is great and moves at a good pace without being fragmented. I loved the way some of the original Planet of the Apes music was used. I cant really think of anything I didnt like.

Easily the best of the reboot series. A high risk movie that ended up with the highest rewards. Fantastic characters, story, setting, score, writing, CGI. Perfect

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

The mocap-and-CGI apes are still a wonder to behold. (Oddly enough, the CGI eagles left a bit to be desired, I thought). What I love about this series is that, while they're cracking good adventure flicks and special FX show-offs, they are also actually good science fiction -- both parts of that phrase.

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars
