The planet of the apes cover
The movie that
I’ll review in this essay is named: The
Planet of the Apes and I’m sure you’ve heard about it.
The movie was
aired in 1968, and was directed by Franklin Shaffner. It was inspired on the
novel with the samen name.
Plot:
In the year
1974, four astronauts are sent to space in an exploring mission. The captain of
the ship, George Taylor (Charlton Heston) has calculated that, with the Theory
of Relativity of Einstein, the time on Earth will be accelerated. The mission
has taken 18 months; while on Earth have passed 2006 years since the launch of
the ship.
During the
voyage, a malfunction in the ship has caused the death of one of the
astronauts, and finally, the ship ends up falling into an unknown planet. The
three remaining explorers get out of the ship and start exploring this new
planet. A bit later, they discover life form, but in a weird and disturbing
way. In this world, “humans” behave like animals, and they are being
exterminated by some kind race of apes.
Our three
humans end up separating from each other, and get captured by the apes. Since
now, the story will focus on the captain Taylor, and with him, we’ll learn
about this strange ape society, and the mysterious story of this unknown
planet…
