Roger Ebert

"Dawn of the Planet of the Apes" is loud, smart and ferociously committed to its premise, leaving an intriguingly bitter aftertaste.

The New York Times

Variety

An altogether smashing sequel to 2011’s better-than-expected 'Rise of the Planet of the Apes,' this vivid, violent extension of humanoid ape Caesar’s troubled quest for independence bests its predecessor in nearly every technical and conceptual department.

IMDb

'Dawn of the Planet of the Apes' is as close to a Science-Fiction masterpiece as a 170 million PG-13 Hollywood summer blockbuster can possibly get.
