More character-focused, setting up the time loop of the original series
Way better than the previous one : more humorous and romance-centered but surprisingly relevant
Better than the second but doesn’t live up to the first. Still has some good moments and is quite enjoyable
Decent twist on the Planet of the Apes concept. Was well executed. Did have some very cheesy moments, but on the whole it's good.
The first two were very timeless movies. This one is distinctly 70's.
Ok sci-fi action thriller, worth a watch
It is very entertaining movie good story and a lot happens
Series tan it’s course after the first ot for a lack of trying though
Time(& culture) is a circle. Truly impressive social commentary & costume design, as with the rest of the OG films.
Great makeup and costumes for the times
