Didn't move the series forward


As a big fan of the first film, and liking the second, this third one felt like it was too small scale with a lot of pointless stuff happening. I applaud the film for having soul, and being brave enough to take it's time, but it didn't work overall. I hope the next one will be better.

Yeah, this was a very flawed movie. No good plot, no tension, no action, no interesting dialogues. I only liked Bad Ape and Maurice characters for comedic element. Harelson was miscast and underwritten. This would've been good if it were the first outing, and had no big expectations set up. How on earth this movie didn't bomb at the box office? And instead it grossed like half a billion. People just didn't want to believe bad reviews I guess or were just conned into seeing it like I was.

I wasn't sold on the trailers and I was right. This movie really wasn't anything super. It wasn't terrible either. It was basically just really well made, effects wise.
