Great Film, 3 January 2003
Author:
Theo Robertson from Isle Of Bute , Scotland
Unlike the recent Tim Burton remake this can be called a great film .
Franklin J Schaffner does a good job of bringing an otherworldliness ( And
just how ironic is that ?) to the film , and the ending is rightly regarded
as a classic moment of cinema . This is how SF should be made , with little
FX and with much intelligence .
No doubt a reviewer can be critical and point out that a lot of the subtext
of the original novel has been culled and there`s a serious lapse in logic
in that both apes and humans speak the exact same language without either
stopping to point this out , but I like this film and it`s too good to pick
holes at
