I don’t think the human element of this really works.

i enjoyed it a lot as well, i went in expecting nothing and it was very refreshing to see something new.

to me, it seemed humans weren't part of this story, they were there, but this was more a coming of age of the new leaders and how apes were coping with life in the new world.

i like that they made it, the apes story

no need to have humans trying to be part of the story when its not needed. i also like the way it ended with 2 avenues they can use to do something with humans by the story of those scientists still hiding underground labs, or the ones like echo that are smart and educated working free on the outside trying to survive the ape world. there are lots of story lines that can sprout from that starting point of reference
