1. Screen Daily

9 / 10

A muscular blockbuster that is far more intelligent and mature than most event movies

8 / 10

It is a film that fast-forwards deep into the post-ape world, takes a few deep breaths, and lets us live there for a moment.

7.5 / 10

"Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes" aims to bring big ideas into a sprawling blockbuster atmosphere, though that gambit winds up weighed down by its own ambitions.

6.7 / 10

In a way, this is the most interesting part of "Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes", when we encounter bits of information that are also a nod to the 1968 original.

6 / 10

Entertaining enough but inessential, "Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes" offers spectacle and thrills but lacks the ambition, smarts, and gravity of its immediate predecessors.

1. Moviezine

8 / 10

Translated from swedish: The effects may be completely fantastic, but it is above all a science fiction adventure with both a brain and a heart. "Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes" is an entertaining and visually striking adventure that once again proves that apes have a place on the big screen.
