Additional InformationFeatures both the 1968 original version of PLANET OF THE APES and the 2001 Tim Burton remake. In PLANET OF THE APES (1968), three astronauts crash land on an Earth-like planet. They find themselves two thousand years in the future after some apocalyptic event. Now apes run the planet and humans are the enslaved. In the 2001 Tim Burton remake, Astronaut Leo Davidson is part of a space station crew that, in the year 2029, is conducting experiments in training genetically engineered chimps to perform complex away missions. When Leo's chimp disappears into a worm hole, Leo unadvisedly goes after him, ending up in a parallel world in which the monkeys are the keepers and humans are traded and caged like animals.
ReviewsRoliing Stone - [2001] These creatures snarl, swing from trees and bare their teeth with startling authenticity, and each one looks different. Baker's work is monumental, Entertainment Weekly - [2001] [Roth gives] a performance of gnashing wit and ferocity [...] The apes in PLANET OF THE APES have character [...] The movie is all but destined to become Burton's second hit in a row, Empire - [1968] A film rich with unforgettable imagery, killer lines and physical thrills., Film4 - [1968] Seminal simian sci-fi that blends satire with the drive and pace of an adventure story.
