20 Predictions For 2017's Rotten Tomatoes Scores

8. War For The Planet Of The Apes (85%)

War For The Planet Of The Apes
20th Century Fox

Predicted Critical Consensus: "A thrilling, emotionally resonant capper to the Apes trilogy, War for the Planet of the Apes is propelled forward by landmark visual effects and another incredible performance from Andy Serkis."

Both prior Apes movies have gone down incredibly well with critics (82% and 90% respectively), so there's little reason this one won't complete the three-peat, given the return of director Matt Reeves.

What's been shown off so far looks very different from what's come before, but tonally and stylistically consistent, and as long as it nails the right emotion, it's hard to imagine this one being anything less than strongly praised.
