Counted four explosions before the studio logo finished. Planet of the Apes knows its audience.

Planet of the Apes: proof the studio reads its own marketing too literally.

If whispered monologues were currency, Planet of the Apes would settle the national debt.

Planet of the Apes is what happens when a writers' room confuses "ambiguous" with "didn't finish the draft".

Unpopular opinion: Planet of the Apes is the most overrated film of the decade
Director clearly thought Planet of the Apes was deeper than it is. There's a difference between ambiguous and unfinished, and this leans hard into the second.

Hot Take: Planet of the Apes's third act ruined what could have been a masterpiece
Honestly, Planet of the Apes would be a tight 95-minute movie. Instead we got a bloated runtime padded with B-roll and lingering shots that add nothing.

Why does no one talk about how mid the writing in Planet of the Apes actually is?
Everyone praising the Planet of the Apes performances must have watched a different cut. The lead is sleepwalking through this and the supporting cast can't save it.
