peter travers of "rolling stone" gave the film 3.5 out of 4 stars, and said that serkis performed "with a resonant power and depth of feeling that's nearly shakespearean. oscar, get busy: serkis deserves the gold," and went on to say that ""war for the planet of the apes"—no. 9 in the simian cinema canon—is the best of the apes films since the 1968 original." eric kohn of indiewire gave the film a b+ rating, and praised matt reeves's directing, saying "it's a given that an expensive 21st-century sci-fi movie with talking animals, exploding tanks, and jarring machine guns would look and sound great, but reeves applies these effects with such a measured strategy that they're always working in service of a greater narrative agenda." kohn went on to applaud the visuals and musical score, stating that "the breathlessly paced montage of flying bullets and angry monkeys raining down on terrified men, aided by michael giacchino's vibrant score, is a strong indicator of the next-level craftsmanship that distinguishes these movies from so many cacophonous hollywood spectacles; not only is the action easy to follow, but you care for the motion-captured characters at the center of it, while the humans cower in fear."
