No, I will not elaborate.

Okay, I will elaborate a little. I hate disney movies, they’re all slop, but I loved the last PotA trilogy (Rise, Dawn, War), in fact War is one of my favourite movies of all time. I was extremely concerned with the big mouse bought Fox that they would disneyfy PotA but Kingdom had similar vibes to the last trilogy and had some really lovely moments, e.g. the observatory scenes and any scene with Raka. Soundtrack was also nice. I liked it.

    I just watched it today. I won’t say I liked this more than the last three. It wasn’t too tense. I liked the visuals and the forests. I was waiting for at least one action set piece that’s wild. I loved when the ape commandeers a tank in the second movie. There wasn’t anything like that in this (at least how I felt).

    Tap for spoiler

    The main plot felt ok. The stakes felt off. I feel like they should have amped up the humans wanting to keep the weapons and information to themselves as opposed to apes getting it. Only to open that schism near the end felt like a cheap setup to the next movie. They should’ve gotten the ape clans and proximus stuff over in the first half. Then the human conflict should’ve been started in the second half of the movie. I did like raka though. Gone too soon.
