To me: it's a masterpiece.
Bleak, brilliant and groundbreaking sci-fi movie. The best POTA sequel.
Hello guys,
If you believe that Cornelius, Zira and CAESAR altered the past in 1973 and created a better Planet of the Apes (as seen in BATTLE), then these are my very detailed and well-thought POTA timelines based on the revisable timeline concept:
TIME TRAVELLING ON THE PLANET OF THE APES potaplanetoftheapes.blogspot.com
You can also find detailed timelines for Burton's 2001 reimagining and the original 1974 TV series as well. Check my special files on all Planet of the Apes existing in movies and fiction.
More to come! In the while, enjoy. Thanks.

6/10. I found it to be a letdown after the first. Not the worst, but not the best either.

6 1/2 rounded out to 7/10. I give it extra credit for some ideas like the ape steam bath scene which reminded me of a Roman epic--I feel that was influenced by Spartacus. Franciscus was a decent stand in for Heston. The spfx were good-the ape army on the march was cool-I wasn't crazy about the ape war protest scene and I don't like the ending. It's too negative--the doomsday bomb thing.

I don’t think it’s a good movie, but it’s probably my favorite of the sequels because it’s the only one that looks like the original.
EDIT: And also the last one with a bunch of great lines: “The only good human is a dead human!,” “He bleeds! The Lawgiver bleeds!,” “Glory be to the Bomb, and to the Holy Fallout,” “You bloody bastard,” “My God, it’s a city of APES!,” “Get…out…of…my…head!”
Escape has one or two (“grape juice plus,” “Only when she lets me”), but it’s just one or two. And the other sequels… I can’t think of a single great line from them.

Thank God, Cornelius, Zira, Dr. Milo and Caesar changed that. That was the whole point of the saga.

A big disappointment sequel to the 1968 classic. Re-watched it a few years ago and maybe I was a bit harsh so I moved it up to my current rating.

It was very original, not a simple rehash of the first movie.
