“All new! The revolt of the apes. The most awesome spectacle in the annals of science fiction!”

ActionScience Fiction

In a futuristic world that has embraced ape slavery, a chimpanzee named Caesar resurfaces after almost twenty years of hiding from the authorities, and prepares for a revolt against humanity.

VIBE

A grim, propulsive descent into revolutionary fervor, this film pulses with an oppressive tension. It's a raw, unflinching look at societal injustice and the inevitable, violent pushback, wrapped in a gritty 70s sci-fi aesthetic. The air is thick with impending rebellion and a desperate fight for freedom.
