I absolutely loved #KingdomOfThePlanetOfTheApes. The visuals are epic and I loved the characters. Was hooked immediately and that 2.5 hours just flew by. This should be experience in theaters. I saw it in IMAX and it looked gorgeous. Wes Ball knocked it out of the park. pic.twitter.com/rQ9X4qe4cE— Wendy Lee Szany (@WendyLeeSzany) May 8, 2024 ##

#KingdomOfThePlanetOfTheApes is a beautiful & incredible evolution of what came before. Adding onto Cesar’s legacy in a way that mirrors our real world history & how religion influences leaders through our time.

#KingdomOfThePlanetOfTheApes - dazzling and remarkable VFX work truly shows off Weta's abilities. Impressive work by cast too. Story could have been stronger & pacing tighter. More human protagonists needed, but would love spin-off movie on Raka. Sci-fi fans will enjoy. #Apes— Gitesh Pandya (@GiteshPandya) May 8, 2024 ##
Oh what a wonderful film! #KingdomOfThePlanetOfTheApes continues the franchise’s winning streak. Built upon Caesar’s legacy, Wes Ball’s excellent sequel works as a unique coming-of-age adventure with big risks & heart. Visuals are amazing, while Owen Teague is phenomenal as Noa. pic.twitter.com/An3DwLcNHp— Fico Cangiano (@FicoCangiano) May 8, 2024 ##
#KingdomOfThePlanetOfTheApes is a worthy follow-up to the best blockbuster trilogy of the 2010s.It doesn’t look quite as good as Reeves’ two movies, but Wes Ball offers a smart propulsive sci-fi adventure, one deliberately and effectively haunted by great Caesar’s ghost. pic.twitter.com/Ub7xEdC1dL— Darren Mooney (@Darren_Mooney) May 7, 2024 ##

#KingdomOfThePlanetOfTheApes is an incredibly intriguing and visually stunning first chapter in a new world built from the ashes of Ceasar. Owen Teague delivers a stellar performance and Kevin Durand is equal parts sadistic and nerve-racking. There is so much more story to tell. pic.twitter.com/1IPlIicn0f— nateplaysgames - Geekcentric (@n8playsgames) May 6, 2024 ##
#KingdomOfThePlanetOfTheApes is a solid new beginning for the reboot series. Despite its pacing issues, the compelling narrative and stellar VFX kept me engaged.
