What critics compared Beneath the Planet of the Apes to
Jack’s bubble ship and sky condo have all the polish of any given iDevice; the evident destruction of New York City landmarks bring to mind “Planet of the Apes,” if somehow nothing else; while a bomb-minded resistance movement led by the Morpheus-like Beech (Morgan Freeman) more specifically evokes “Beneath the Planet of the Apes.”
Then makes "Beneath the Planet of the Apes" anyway.
And here's Tim Roth as Thade, a warrior general ape (James Gregory as Ursus in Beneath the Planet of the Apes).
This first sequel to Planet of the Apes isn't bad, but already shows the way the original conception was to degenerate into routine comic strip adventure.
There are references to “Beneath the Planet of the Apes” as well as to “Apocalypse Now” as Caesar and the Colonel head to a showdown.
Beneath the Planet of the Apes (1970), Escape from the Planet of the Apes (1971), Conquest of the Planet of the Apes (1972), Battle for the Planet of the Apes (1973): The not-so-memorable, not-so-classics.
After previous outings such as Beneath the Planet of the Apes and Slightly to the Left of the Planet of the Apes, we now have Dawn of the Planet of the Apes.
