War planet apes is mid
*friendly debate* Caesar does absolutely nothing in that movie. Dude gets tortured and is in pain the whole movie. From the moment he loses his family to the moment he dies at the end. Absolutely ridiculous. 3/4th of the film Caesar is locked up, suffering while his friends, Maurice and them, watch him from afar. Eventually yes, Caesar is freed thanks to his friends but he still doesn’t do anything. Dude gets pinned down and would have died if not for the Gorilla. The Gorilla did something. Not Caesar. Then everyone escapes and Caesar dies. I literally sat and watched this film for the two hour duration I think this film is and all i saw was Caesar being tortured and starved. I at least expected him to free himself or have someone free him and have him actually do something to avenge the fallen apes but noooooooooooo dude talks to the main antagonists and shares sob stories and then he’s locked up most of the film. He doesn’t free anybody, that was thanks to Maurice and them. He tries to permanently bring down the human brigade but fails miserably. Thanks to the gorilla, the plan worked. Again, thanks to the GORILLA. Caesar does absolutely nothing in this film. The film is mid. You can’t change my mind. Also, the first movie is a masterpiece right up until the end when the most ridiculous, idiotic thing happens. This thing is the most horrendous event to happen on the big screen and in all of fiction. Apparently to the humans of that world, the word quarantine, and the action of quarantining just doesn’t exist. They literally make an artificial virus with no firewalls whatsoever. It’s common sense to quarantine unknown viruses. Especially when working hands on with them. Dudes mask falls off mid experiment when they were working on Coba. AND THEY TAKE ABSOLUTELY NO ACTION TOWARDS THAT! Dude should have been quarantined. Dude should have never seen the light of day. But nooooo, they let him run amok. Dude is infecting everyone he comes in contact with. Had they quarantined him, like any common minded individual would have done, humans wouldn’t have gone extinct. Humans played a major role in their own extinction, and it was because they decided to disregard quarantining altogether. That is unrealistic. In real life, proper procedures would have taken place to ensure no scientist was or would be exposed to the virus. It’s common sense to apply firewalls when working on a virus, especially an artificial one. The scientists in that movie are absolutely dumb. Unrealistic to the highest degree. Sure, Coba is induced with the virus and Caesar breaks him out of the lab, but the human incident came first. To the people in that movie, quarantining doesn’t exist. Absolutely unrealistic and idiotic. This movie went from a 10/10 to an easy 1/10 because of this dumb mistake. It’s common sense to quarantine a virus when your hands on with it. But to them, that just isn’t a thing. Absolutely ridiculous. First film is a 1/10. 2nd film is a masterpiece, 10/10. 3rd film is boring and nothing happens to justify or glorify Caesar as a protagonist. Dude was locked up the whole movie and dies without doing anything. 4/10 Again, this is a friendly debate. I would love to hear your thoughts on this. I don’t think you can sway me into thinking the climax of the first film is realistic in any way. Also, you can’t change my mind into thinking the third film is a top 50 fiction film. It’s a bottom low for me. Absolutely boring. But I would love to hear y’all’s thoughts on it.
