MIX UP REVIEWS:
Daniel (Age 12) - ★★★★1/2
"This was a great movie.
The CGI was incredible and the characters were written perfectly. My favourite character was Maurice the orangutang because he was nice to the humans and he was funny. I loved the final scene at the end because of the action and the perfect setting. I think the only thing that would make this movie better would be a bit more action but apart from that this was a great film I could recommend to apocalypse fans and action fans."

Dawn is the middle film of the trilogy so worth checking out the other two, Rise of the Planet of the Apes and War for the Planet of the Apes. For more action packed sci-fi thrills check out Avengers: Endgame and Dune. Andy Serkis gives another fantastic motion capture performance as Gollum in The Lord of the Rings trilogy. The writers had a hand in the Jurassic World movies (more man v creature!) and for more apocalyptic stories check out the new series, The Last of Us.
