Hello everyone, get ready to dive into the latest installment of the Planet of the Apes series. I recently watched the fourth part, Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, in its Hindi dubbed version. Let’s talk about it.

First off, for those who might need a quick refresher on the previous three parts, I’ve already made a recap video. You can find the link in the description.

Now, onto the fourth part. The story takes place several generations into the future, roughly 300 years after the last film. In this era, apes have become the dominant species, while humans live like Stone Age people. The movie picks up right where the last part ended, with Caesar’s legacy. According to internal news and the creators, this movie is the first part of a new trilogy, marking the beginning of the apes’ new journey.

Let’s start by appreciating the sheer imagination behind this film. The creators have thought so far ahead and presented it so differently that it feels incredibly realistic. The presentation is top-notch, especially the VFX and CGI. The environments are eye-catching and immersive.

The storyline involves an attacking tribe motivated by a girl – you’ll have to watch the movie to find out more about her. However, at almost two and a half hours, the film feels a bit stretched. Some of the long conversations could have been trimmed, making the movie more concise at around two hours.

Visually, it’s a treat with no doubt. The movie ends on an open note, setting the stage for the next part. Watching it in Hindi, I found the dubbing to be very well done, with characters’ voices fitting perfectly. The movie is family-friendly, suitable for viewers of all ages.

The film also delves into the aftermath of a virus, showing genetic changes and the struggle of humans trying to reclaim their identity. The climax is quite satisfying, although it might come off as a bit clichéd. However, for the mass audience, the showdown with the villain is sure to get some cheers.

Overall, I enjoyed the movie despite a few flaws. My rating for Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes is 3.5 out of 5 stars. Go watch it and enjoy. See you in the next video. Bye!
