"Escape From The Planet Of The Apes"
is part of the the classic SciFi
movie series begun with the great
"Planet Of The Apes".
Three "apes" arrive in the pop culture
America of 1973 (?) from a future where
apes are the dominant and intellectually superior
species, able to communicate by spoken
language (English), and humans are as beasts.

Now it's the apes who can talk in a human society as three of them fly to the United States from Earth's far future.
An interesting story, it uses the only two likeable characters from Ape City to deal with humanity. Lots of laughs and social barbs but not one of the best of the series. The plot device that gets the apes to the past is pretty weak too. A must-see though, if you've watched the other movies.

I wasted good money going to see the remake of Planet of the Apes, so I decided I needed to watch the original movie. I bought the whole collection and stayed up all night 'just like I did when I was a teenager', to watch them all in a row. The special effects are not up to today's standards that's true, but the story line doesnt get lost in today's political correctness like the remake did. I enjoyed them very, very much.

OK, None of the sequels measure up to the original, but this is the best of the sequels. It is done with some humor as it should be, because at this point the whole plot is skating on very thin ice! The movie is funny, tragically sad and interesting, just don't think about it too long afterwards. I am a fan of the series and I'm being generous with my rating. The DVD transfer looks great. If your a fan of the series you want them all!
