Well this really was a disappointment! Fans of the original, this will disappoint. On the other hand, if you appreciate mindless eye candy like "The Mummy", then, by all means, buy this.Burton's movie has no character development, little in the way of a plot, and an extremely improbable scenario. Were gorillas and orangutans on the spaceship? How do those species reproduce without any females?The chimp should have crash landed at the end so that way there could be no dreadful ending with that little pod just happening to crash on earth when there was no sign that the spaceship was anywhere near earth in the beginning.20th Century Fox -- give the makeup guy another job doing a real Planet of the Apes movie, with a decent director.And while you are at it, how about a director's cut DVD of 'Conquest of the Planet of the Apes' the way it should have been in the beginning!!!!!!!! Save us the bad endings!!!
