Beautiful, moving film.

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

A 9 for technical achievement alone! A 50 year old movie and the plot and particularly the make-up effects still hold up today.Watched today 05/08/2018 on a 50" UHD 4K Digital LED TV. Even close up, the make-up effects hold-up and would hold up to anything current .

Planet Of The Apes4 Out Of 5Planet Of The Apes is a sci-fi plot driven feature that depicts a life changing experience of an explorer who has landed on an unknown land and probably among a known species. Despite of having such a wide range on the genre, very few of them gets it right and this is one of them and primary reason to that is the maturity and the ingenious approach towards that concept is what makes it stand alone. It is short on technical aspects like cinematography, production design and editing although is rich in costume design and background score and sound effects. The writing is strong and witty and isn't afraid to visit unexplored places with thought-provoking concept and a sense of urgency that keeps the audience engaged throughout the course of it. The adaptive screenplay by Michael Wilson and Rod Serling is gripping and smart as the various steps in an act just falls in fluently without any hesitation. Franklin J. Schaffner; the director, is in his A game and has pulled off one of the best sci-fi fictional feature that is abruptly evergreen in its self-created mythology. It is short on performance but in actors' defense there isn't much range provided for them to factor in, accordingly. Planet Of The Apes is a worth exploring land on terms of the craft that went into creating such a glorifying and adventurous experience that communicates immensely with the audience.

This is the real Planet of the Apes - superior to the reboot in any sense and in any aspect - better acting, better story, better everything, I even like the ape-masks more (they look far more real) then this crap CGI-Apes of the new ones.Charlton Heston plays the lead role in three classics of sci-fi: Soylent Green, The Omega Man, and Planet of the Apes. Like Ben Hur these movies are top notch for their time and even still after all the time for the genre of sci-fi.Watch this one and the sequels (they are not with Heston and can't keep up with the level of the 1st movie but are still good) and skip the video games Hollywood tries to sell us as "movies".

Planet of the Apes is one of the greatest classics in science fiction, a film that had a release close to another classic of the 2001 fiction of the master Stanley Kubrick, Planet of the Apes has a somewhat confusing storyline, since it uses time travel and etc. , The film impresses by your makeup, today you will find it bad, but at the time it was released it was something impressive, the monkeys were very well done, the cast is very well, has that at that time was at its peak Charlton Heston which is made The Twilight Saga: New Moon Plot Twist: The Twilight Saga: The Twilight Saga: New Moon Plot Twist: The Twilight Saga: The Twilight Saga: New Moon Great turnaround, has a good cast, has some problems in the script, but it is still a great movie.
