140: Lord of the Apes

War for the Planet of the Apes.

Continuing a franchise is one of the hardest things to do in Hollywood, it's not hard in the sense that it doesn't happen very often, because it does, it's hard in the sense of making the film feel like it has a reason for existing other than making money and truly feels worthy of what's come before.

In this episode of The 602 Club host Matthew Rushing is joined by Brandon-Shea Mutala to talk about War for the Planet of the Apes. We discuss from the rise of the dawn comes war, mercy, the unwanted, mercy part two, history learnin', Woody and Bad Ape, the effects, the score and our ratings.
