"11.4. Disney+ Herttaisella sci-fillä on sanottavaa ihmiskunnan synneistä ja kuinka isojen teemojen toimiva, mutta hienovarainen ujuttaminen isoon, viihteelliseen Hollywood-elokuvaan ei pitäisi olla mikään ongelma. Sillä on myös painolastinaan naurettavan ylimielinen Charlton Heston edustamassa älykkään ihmiskunnan viimeistä näytekappaletta, mikä taas on aika hurja näkymä ja vahva symboli tuhostamme. Maskeeraukset, lavasteet sun muut ovat kestäneet aikaa erinomaisesti."

“(OK) So popular and influential that is a must. But really it has a strong idea (the reversal of evolution from men to apes) and a silly plot. The apes are too stupid. The endig is worth the film...” read more

" Planet of the Apes is a 1968 American science fiction film directed by Franklin J. Schaffner and loosely based on the 1963 French novel La Planète des Singes by Pierre Boulle. Written by Michael Wilson and Rod Serling, it stars Charlton Heston, Roddy McDowall, Kim Hunter, Maurice Evans, James Whitmore, James Daly and Linda Harrison. In the film, an astronaut crew crash-lands on a strange planet in the distant future. Although the planet appears desolate at first, the surviving crew members st"

“This film is absolutely wonderful, much better than the uninspired Tim Burton re-imagining(that saddened me as I like Burton, well his early movies anyway). This though is the real deal, much better told in terms of story, and the script is clever and sly. Planet of the Apes certainly looks good, the special effects and cinematography are excellent for their time, and the ape make up is simply marvellous. And of course the twist ending still delights(and shocks). And I think the acting is good, with Charlton Heston appropriately square jawed in one of his more interesting film roles and as the apes Roddy McDowall and Kim Hunter really do shine. The direction is engaging and focused as well, and the score is terrific. The film may start a little slow, but that is nothing compared to how ped” read more
