| | Planet Of The Apes Original Film Summary |
 | | Planet of the Apes: the original motion picture starring Charleton Heston, Roddy McDowall, Kim Hunter, Maurice Evans, James Whitmore, and Linda Harrison. |
 | | The interactions between man and ape in the film were reflective of many of the social and governmental issues of the sixties: the burgeoning animal rights movement, nuclear war, creationism vs evolution, classism, racism, and equal rights. If one looks closely, there are many others, as well. |
 | | In contrast to Tim Burton's 2001 version of Planet of the Apes, which had better sheer entertainment value, the original Apes movie had a more defined contrast between ape and man. Perhaps it was a mistake to have thinking, talking, blatantly problem-solving humans in the Burton remake. |
