The ads claim this new one is the best film in the franchise and I’m over here like “so far none of them have even come close to being as good as the original Charlton Heston film.”
I’ve seen the Charlton Heston one, and the 2001 Mark Wahlberg one. The original was obviously better. I hadn’t seen any of the current cycle until I saw Kingdom last weekend. It was fine.
I listened to a recap of the previous 3 films and it didn’t matter. Kingdom takes place “many generations” after the third movie so all the other characters are dead. Kingdom’s story works fine as a standalone film. It’s not amazing, but there’s nothing particularly awful about it. Now I’ll probably see the next couple, but they’re not high on my list.

That movie has so many quotable lines.
“It’s a madhouse! A madhouse!”
“You did it. You finally did it. You blew it up! Damn you! Damn you all to hell!”
The original is one of my favorite films. No question.
