Om denne filmen

In the acclaimed sequel to Planet of the Apes, another astronaut (James Franciscus) crashes through the time barrier searching for the missing Taylor (Charlton Heston). The daring rescue leads to a subterranean city where mutant humans, who practice mind control, worship a weapon capable of destroying the entire planet. Both an action-oriented science-fiction adventure and a wry commentary on today's world, it's imaginative entertainment for fantasy buffs of all ages.

This was my favorite, go-to "Apes" film for several years. It's a leftovers type of sequel. Like Friday night's awesome dinner becomes Sundays so-so lunch. They threw the same basic elements into the oven, heated them back up and served it up with a fresh set of sides. The angry Ape general, the destroyed underground NYC labyrinth and the skinless Mutant humans; all make for a solid reheat. Also, this Apes film features the most depressing, downbeat ending in the entire series imo 💯

The first one was better. Zira and Cornelius were seen less in this one. Oh yeah. . . I still don't know why the apes look better than those 'people'.

Blow that Earth up!
