There was no war, a skirmish at the beginning and a prison movie at the end. Then some helicopters flew over and the avalanche won.
Should have been called Ape Escape.
This isn’t a joke, there was no war in the movie.
I agree, I avoided seeing this film for a year because it sounded like it would be the weakest film in the trilogy and a lame ripoff of the already awful Battle for the Planet of the Apes.
It was definitely more of a prison break movie, Great Escape with apes. There was no "war".
Battle for the Planet of the Apes suffered from having such a low budget but the story itself was pretty good.
I'd quite like to have seen this as a high budget remake / reimagining of that film!
I avoided this film for the same reasons. I thought it was going to be more like Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, with a bunch of ridiculous action scenes and more battle monkeys doing battle in scenarios ripped right out of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare.
I can say that this film definitely was misnamed because it was a heck of a lot better than I thought it had any right to be.
i wonder why they called the movie *War* for the planet of the apes, since there was no *War* in the movie?
