How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A operatic tragedy about the cost of war and the darkness that revenge breeds, told through a conflict between species that mirrors human moral failings. Visually stunning and emotionally brutal, it's a film that asks what happens when compassion meets necessary violence.

Reviews
Ceasar has monkey bussines to attend to
This truly has it all. Action, drama, love, loss, and the addition of Steve Zahn brings some comedy. I laughed, I cried.
Obsessed with Maurice and Nova and Bad Ape.
