Dark Shadows, Alice in Wonderland and Dumbo are definitely worse.

Tim Burton's Planet of the Apes is an alright movie imo. The writing is mediocre and Wahlberg is terrible casting, but the art direction, make-up, atmosphere, Tim Roth, Danny Elfman's score and the twist ending are awesome. Of course, mental gymnastics are needed in order to for the ending to make sense. I just go with it.

This is Danny Elfman at the top of his game.

For some strange reason, that main Danny Elfman theme plays during the fight between Brad Pitt and Eric Bana in the director's cut of Troy:

I know, and it doesn't fit the scene at all imo. James Horner's music during that scene in the theatrical version is already perfect.
