Planet of The Apes Director Tim Burton's (Batman) Planet of the Apes begins with premise of Pierre Boulle's classic science fiction novel: A pilot crash lands on a strange planet and finds himself in a brutal, primal place where apes are in charge and humans scavenge for subsistence, hunted and enslaved by the tyrannical primates. Burton's unique personal vision and style break new ground in story, design, makeup and visual effects. The Story starts with Captain Leo Davidson (Mark Wahlberg) who ends up crash-landing on a distant planet, in a distant future. On this planet, however, it's simians who have the power and Davidson is quickly rounded up along with other humans for slave work in Ape City. Worse, ape General Thade (Tim Roth) is trying to convince the senate that humans are dangerous vermin that must be exterminated by any means necessary. When Leo escapes with an important senator's human-sympathizing daughter, Ari (Helena Bonham Carter), Thade is given all the ammunition he needs to unleash his entire army against the human and ape rebels. It's the twist at the end, though, that will have everyone talking.

This is wonderful remake of the famous serial which I'm sure all of us have enjoyed watching. A must see! Cast: Mark Wahlberg (Captain Leo) , Tim Roth as Thade, Helena Bonham Carter as Ari and Michael Clarke Duncan as Attar. Credits: Director - Tim Burton, Producer - Richard D Zanuck.
