It is just a story?,

This review is from: Planet of the Apes (Paperback)
I know different media calls for different handling of the story. And most movies do not live up to the book. However some exceed the book. Surprise neither movie can live up to the book. If you thought that the movie 1968 versions are insightful, surprising and shocking the first time you see it. Then you defiantly have lower expectations than the reader does. Especially with such a botched ending. The later movie version was more of an action film yet the ending was much closer to the book. I will not go into the technical or psychological differences, as you will want to discover these for your self as you read "Planet of the Apes"
While sailing around in their solar energy powered spaceship, a bottle is picked up. In the bottle is the message. "I am confiding this manuscript to space, not with the intention of saving myself, but to help, perhaps, to avert the appalling scourge that is menacing the human race. Lord have pity on us." And the story unfolds. They laugh at this ridicules tale. Whether if it is believable or not is up to you. |
