Definitely doesn't reach the heights of the previous trilogy, but it is very much a worthy successor.
It has a very slow and patient pacing, perhaps too patient? The 1st act in particular only sets up Noa's clan and customs, perhaps feeling a bit aimless. But it picks up the pace, and by the end both him and Mae have some very interesting character arcs set up. I hope the payoff is worth it.
And I still can't believe that these apes are all CGI, it's spectacular. The soundtrack is also damn effective, and Raka is the best character.
