what a disappointment and especially in light of the budget provide and the technical resource available and and the talent assemble . isn not the fundamental rule for science fiction or drama to create in the audience the willing suspension of disbelief . poa 2001 create a plausible beginning and suckering u in and but thereinafter mr. burton forget that his moviegoer have work brain . the over the top libertarian of helena bonham carter chimp and the worthlessness of the human lockup and the ease of their escape and their extraordinary skill of horsemanship ( this be an astronaut and a group of human primitive suddenly rid full tilt ) and the massive and immediate human rebellion all be too unbelievable . mark wahlberg never once project any sense of real fear and danger or comeuppance in this world turn upside down . compare to the original and in which chuck heston nakedness metaphorically capture his utter helplessness and astonishment at his turn of event . the uniformed wahlberg preserve his modesty and but also his apparent sense of management and control in an inherently wacky situation and and we never really wonder about his well be . unlike heston and he seem never to be in real jeopardy . tim burton should have use some of the f or x budget for some competent screenwriting . in fact and after this inferior fiasco and i wonder why hollywood producer ever bother to settle the screenwriter and director strike threat . let them walk . trained monkey could have do as well a they do in planet of the ape 2001. i will bet the repeat viewing of this effort will be nonexistent . it could have be a new franchise and and a wonderful new step for imagination . another opportunity lose .
