Reviews

Rob's Movie Vault

Rob Gonsalves

All about noise and chaos — the unstable mix of intellect and brutal will that’s intended to mirror our own evolution.

These apes rock and rule, but their gymnastic antics dont cover-up a thin script and a plot that feels thrown together, and the so-called twist ending feels more like a bad joke someone in production took way too seriously.

Herald Sun (Australia)

Leigh Paatsch

The movie does a great job in its spectacular staging of many pitched battles between humans and their evolutionary ancestors.

No remake would have been deemed complete without a shockaroo ending-and this Apes has its lulu, which I won't disclose-but it leaves behind the stink of arbitrary mystification.

Rumored to have filmed seven or eight endings for the film, one can only wonder if the one selected here was the best or the worst of the bunch.
