Summary: After the ending of the second film, I wasn't sure how they could continue from here. But they continue and they did an amazing job. The lighthearted beginning that took a dark turn in the end with no happy ending (except Milo I guess). The new characters serve their purpose and Zira shines as the proper main character. With Cornelius' character being right there with her. Very well made movie. 7/10

Pros:
• Has some great comedic moments
• I love how they portray human use towards the apes in this film. Perceived with open arms but actually being used for publicity and further information.
• Personal add-on as a Christian, "Alter what you believe to be the course of the future by slautering two innocents? Or rather three, now that one of them is pregnant. Herod tried that, and Christ survived." Hard line there.
• I love the whole governmental responses to the apes. It's not just willy nilly gov evil, but legitimate debates and responses.
• Zira continues to be the best character in the franchise. Her personality, her importance, everything. Even though every other female is poorly used, she shines above the cast.
• I love how lighthearted the beginning to the turn as dark as it did.

Cons:
• Dr. Milo is introduced just to be killed off in the first 18 minutes. Not a major con but could've been more important.
