The new "Planet of the Apes" movie

Post by LovelyLadyLux »

I don't know the name of the latest release of the "Planet of the Apes" movie but was reading the reviews and it seems to be getting pretty good reviews. Has anybody seen it?

I remember the first "Planet of the Apes" movie with Charlton Heston (OMG he was to die for) and it fascinated me as did many of the following variations on the theme - evolution/devolution/distant relatives......I remember loving those movies way back when.

Comments on this one? Recommendations?

Not seen this one myself yet, but I must agree that the original film with Charlton Heston where at the very end you realise that the ‘Planet of the Apes’ is really the future planet Earth after a global nuclear war has destroyed it, was very thought provoking at the time.

I really loved the ending of the ending of the first Planet of the Apes. Thought about it for a long long time.

I don't go the cinema often but am pretty sure I'm going to go and see this one. By all accounts in the adverts it seems to be a good one.

Hope you like it LLL. Not for me - false monkey suits and animated apes - totally unrealistic in my mind. Now, Harry Potter, thats so well made and the effects are flawless - - :) - - :) - - :)
