Sex & Nudity

Violence & Gore
-
- Moderate. An ape starts swinging around an assault rifle and then abruptly uses it to shoot a man to death. He lets out a sharp scream and blood sprays into the air. The man next to him begs to be spared but he is also shot accompanied by a spray of blood. This scene is very disturbing and scary.
- Caesar (an ape) leaps onto Koba (an ape) and suddenly starts to strangle him. An orangutan tells Caesar to stop it and he does. Koba is still alive.
- Koba shoots two men with a gun.
- An ape attacks man waiting in a car.

Violence & Gore
- Caesar and Koba fight and after Koba is defeated and pleads for his life Caesar kills him anyway.
- Koba shoots Caesar, who is presumed dead. Later on he is found alive and has surgery to remove the bullet
- Koba murders a young ape that questions his orders by dragging him to a balcony and throwing him over the edge while other apes watch.
- A small-scale battle between humans and apes occurs, mostly this consists of people being shot by apes and vice versa using machine guns and rocket launchers. This is an intense battle scene with apes shown burning to death and being blown up. The scene concludes with the annihilation of the human defenders and then the apes use a tank to break in and capture the civilians.
- A man uses a bomb try to try to blow up the apes and he kills himself and some of his friends when he detonates the bomb.
Frightening & Intense Scenes
- It is implied that Ceasar's adopted father, Will Rodman, has died from simian flu. This can be upsetting, since Ceasar had a close bond with Will.
- A man suddenly encounters two apes and shoots one of them on impulse. Soon he and his friends are surrounded by numerous apes armed with spears. The apes are ready to attack. After a lot of tension the apes begin shouting loudly at the humans to "Go!"
- A baby ape uncovers a sawed off shotgun, resulting in tension.
- Very brief moments include disturbing images and iconography. Two scenes show the contents of a sketchbook detailing everything a boy saw happen while there was anarchy. Several scenes have graffiti in the background raving about 'Simian Flu' and choice phrases about the end of the world. Animal skulls and bones have been arranged into 'scarecrows' by apes. Buildings are in ruins and overgrown and so are some iconic landmarks, constantly reminding the audience of the post-apocalyptic setting.
