David McK (3369 KP) rated The Matrix Revolutions (2003) in Movies

Whilst not as heavily overdone in the bargain basement mumbo jumbo as the previous entry, I feel that this missed a trick by not having Zion itself part of The Matrix simulation (or is it?), while the final Neo vs Smith showdown in the pouring rain is perhaps a tad overdone.
For all that, however, it's not as bad as it's made out to be.

I love all the Neph gang; Kaiden, Blake, Kopano, Marna...not too sure about Ginger yet, though.
Straight onto book 3!
Peter G. (247 KP) rated War for the Planet of the Apes (2017) in Movies
Sep 4, 2019
It riffs upon established POTA tropes such as a believable reason for the loss of speech in humans and also the subtle introduction of Nova.
Effects are beautiful and animation of the apes with Andy Serkis continues to amaze with his performance.
it's a thought provoking story based upon a great escape/Prisoner of war type plot with a prison guard played by a very on form Woody Harrelson.
A fitting end to a better interpretation of Pierre Boulle's classic

I've always felt it's important to allow movies that are a part of a larger universe stand on their own while also being judged as a part of said saga. When that approach is taken, I think most people would be hard pressed to not enjoy this movie.
Also, double bladed lightsaber and Ray Park gymnastics. Enough said.
P.S. Also, podracers!
