Planet of the Apes

2001· PG-13· 2h 0m· Action· Adventure· Science-fiction· Thriller

In the year 2001, Tim Burton's reimagining of "Planet of the Apes" casts a brash astronaut, Leo Davidson, adrift in a dystopian world where intelligent apes reign supreme over a humiliated and oppressed human populace. As Davidson navigates this alien landscape, his efforts to escape are thwarted by the iron-fisted General Thade and his gorilla army, forcing him to question the nature of humanity and civilization. Burton's visually arresting spectacle is a dark reflection on power, dominance, and the fine line between predator and prey.
