deliberately paced epic that closes the trilogy on a high note, War for the Planet of the Apes is not only one of the smartest movies of the year, it's possibly the best film of the summer. When Rise of the Planet of the Apes was announced, no one could have imagined how good the reinvention of the classic sci-fi franchise would turn out to be.

Before my first visit, Mrs. Forte explained via email how she primarily works in a push-in model, where she along with her staff works with the general PE teacher to…

our ancestors, apes, had been separated between jungle and desert. Comparing physical traits of both apes and humans, there is a dramatic difference. Apes on four legs, covered in layers of fur… Then there are the humans, standing tall upon two legs, having no fur. The original theory is that when our ancestors parted in two opposite environments they had simply adapted different traits to their specific environment. The apes needed there current traits to survive. Opposed to the apes that had…
