A very good movie

Who would have expected this franchise to become so enjoyable? I mean, nowadays, it is rather common that they try to reboot some old stuff but it is more because it is less risky to take a well known brand than to create something completely new but, usually,  the end-results are rather underwhelming and most of those reboots just disappear fairly quickly. This is however one of the very few exceptions. Indeed, I really enjoyed the previous installment but this one, to my surprise, was even better. Obviously,  the CGI was once again quite mind-blowing but what I enjoyed even more was how they improved the story. Indeed,  in 'Rise...', they spent just too much time dealing with the humans who were all rather underwhelming. For this sequel,  the focus was on the apes and this was much more interesting. Furthermore, they developed a really realistic dynamic relationship between the humans and the apes which was quite fascinating.  Indeed, even though the whole concept remains rather preposterous, the really sensitive relationship between both communities was very well built up and the way both side reacted was always understandable and believable.  Finally, Caesar has become one of the most fascinating characters I have ever seen and they managed to even further developed him into a great throughtful leader. Anyway, to conclude,  it was a really impressive blockbuster and it is definitely worth a look.
