The fourth entry of the original Planet of the Apes series is set in the far-off future of 1991. In Conquest of the Planet of the Apes, a virus has killed off all cats and dogs, leading humans to start using apes as their house pets. From pets, they eventually became slaves where they were taken to detention centers to be trained on how to serve hu...
Tim Burton’s remake of the original Planet of the Apes got forgotten to time, it just came and went. This is largely due to the majority of the movie being kind of dull. Mark Wahlberg’s character, Captain Leo Davidson, is not charismatic enough to be a good lead or weird enough to at least be memorable, like his hilariously named Transformers lead ...
This movie was the 2nd movie in the original series, with a fast-tracked production, so it could release about a year after the first movie. The movie was so rushed that the film can’t escape how little of thought went into it. The movie follows a new character, Brent (James Franciscus), due to Charlton Heston only agreeing to return for the sequel...
Unless there’s time travel! Escape From the Planet of the Apes is the third film in the original series. It was also rushed and made on an increasingly lower budget. To save money, the film is about two apes from the first movies, Zira (Kim Hunter) and Cornelius (Roddy McDowall) travelling back in time to America in 1970. Seeing the two intelligent...
Often remembered as the worst in the franchise, the fifth entry in the series, Battle for the Planet of the Apes, actually has a lot to offer. The movie takes place after apes have taken over. Humans are still around, but they are not slaves or mute like they are in the first film. The movie follows Caesar again, and his family as he navigates the ...
From here on out in this ranking the movies switch from being weird time capsules from the era of film they released in, to legitimately great films. This 2011 reboot of the franchise is a loose remake of Conquest, this time having a much better take and confidence in its own story. It handles the story of the apes uprising through the lens of anim...
This second film of the rebooted series is also the first in the franchise helmed by The Batman director, Matt Reeves. The world Rupert Wyatt built in Rise of the Planet of the Apes was by no means bad, but Reeves took what he built and just ran with it in Dawn of the Planet of the Apes. This movie takes place after the Simian flu killed off a larg...
It’s hard to beat the classics, and as far as Hollywood sci-fi goes it’s hard to get more classic than the original Planet of the Apes. What’s most striking about this movie on a rewatch is how it takes it’s time while still being under 2 hours long. Before the characters in the story reach the ape city where most of the iconic lines and set pieces...
Summer 2017 was stacked when it came to movies. There were two new marvel movies, new Christopher Nolan and Edgar Wright movies, and the first Wonder Woman. It was a great summer for movies, but there was so much that War for the Planet of the Apes seemed to get lost in the crowd. Not nearly as many people talk about this movie as they should, beca...
