Join The Mate Night Podcast on their journey to rank every film ever made. This week, episode 7, explores "Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes," considered a modern revival in the iconic sci-fi series.

This video explores Jambo and FRED's first impressions of the movie and explores why they might like it before deciding on whether you should watch it at all.

In the remainder of the episode, it is their job to rate this film in 9 different categories:

How much Fred enjoyed it
How much Jambo enjoyed it
Plot
Character
Dialogue
Performance
Visuals
Sound, and
Genre realization.
They will take the average across the 9 areas to finish with a perfectly accurate score representing how enjoyable, and how good, "Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes" really is. This score is held up against other sci-fi classics already in the cinefiles, including "The Godfather," Kubrick's "2001: A Space Odyssey," and "Apocalypse Now" amongst many others. Aside from the rankings of this film, the question which guides this whole segment is: "Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes," should you watch it?

In addition to this, 4 special segments have been included in this episode, titled:

What if Caesar kept the Medicine?
Jambo's review
Common questions
Who created the planet of the apes?

Neither of the hosts have any idea what they are talking about and so if you are a beginner, an everyman, someone who doesn't know films, then this will be digestible for you. If you are a film expert, this may be a bit more like watching your 8-year-old kid playing football: great to watch but you could absolutely mince them on the field.
