KFOG REVIEW: “WAR FOR THE PLANET OF THE APES” & “THE BIG SICK”

​It’s finally a good week at the movies, with very impressive VFX bonanza (banana-za?) “War for the Planet of the Apes” and the incredibly heartfelt and heartwarming “The Big Sick.”

“War for the Planet of the Apes” is the third in the Apes reboot from Fox, and it’s one of the few series that has gotten better as it has progressed.

“The Big Sick” is based on the true story of Kumail Nanjiani (“Silicon Valley”) and Emily Gordon and the trials they faced early in their relationship. From mega producer Judd Apatow and director Michael Showalter, it also stars Ray Romano and Holly Hunter.
