Happy 2012 everyone (Nearly said Merry Christmas), I was originally going to post some reviews of planet of the apes, I did but not all like I wanted, I have been busy. So in this month, I will be catching up on them. I hope you have a great year, hopefully some good films unlike most of the films in 2011.
Until then, uh...I can't really put a review down since I haven't watched any movie yet.
Well...Bye, have a great 2012 and soon more reviews.

Anyway this is the 3rd movie (1 is remake) biggest post(s) reviews.
Oh by the way, before we start, this hole site contain spoilers, be careful.
Conquest from the Planet of the Aps (1972)
This will have the a line mentioned from the last review (aka Film), SO LEAVE till next month since that is when I finish these reviews.
From the other film, Zira mentions about the apes will Rise when all dogs and cats are killed by a virus.
And this film is that time.
After all cats and dogs are killed by the diease, they are replaced by apes. Armando (Ricardo Montalbán second character) and Caesar (Roddy McDowall main character), a young chimpanzee horseback rider in Armando's circus, distribute flyers around a large city to advertise the circus' arrival. Armando warns the chimpanzee to be careful; should anyone learn his identity as the child of Cornelius and Zira, it would mean their deaths. They see apes performing various menial tasks, and are shocked at the harsh discipline on disobedient apes. Seeing an ape being beaten and drugged, Caesar shouts, "Lousy human bastards!" Quickly, Armando takes responsibility for the exclamation, explaining to the policemen that it was he who shouted, not his chimpanzee. The surrounding crowd becomes agitated, and Caesar runs away.
Hiding in a stairway, Armando tells Caesar he will go to the authorities and bluff his way out of the situation. Meantime, Caesar has to hide among his own kind (in a cage of orangutans) and soon finds himself being trained for slavery through violent conditioning.
Now I want to go more into the story, more into the rising, but sadly I can't.
The acting is great but you'd think after these movies, they would make the mouth moving and talking at the same time better, no they didn't, it is still the same. At one point when the apes start rising, there is no beginning to it, it doesn't explain how the apes got together, it just shows them working together which was annoying.
Now I would give more infomation but I don't remember much.
My verdict is 7/10
All infomation was taking by wikipedia, I do not own most of it.
All credit goes to wikipedia for the infomation since my memory is crap, same with other reviews.

Escape from the Planet of the Aps (1971)
This will have the ending from the last review, SO LEAVE till next month since that is when I finish these reviews.
After "beaneth of the planet of the apes" when the nuclear rocket exploded when Taylor and Brent was trying to stop them, (Cornelius, Zira, Main Characters.... And Dr. Milo, played respectively by Roddy McDowall, Kim Hunter, and Sal Mineo) got in a spaceship they somehow found, I ain't sure where, doesn't show it at all. They go back to earth before Apes ruled, they were taken to a lab to be looked at by Stephanie Branton (Natalie Trundy) and Lewis Dixon (Bradford Dillman).
They had Tests (A memory test techinally) And Zira got them all right, they were given a Banana up in the air, and the puzzle was to get it. Zira made a staircase out of chairs you can sit on (They are boxes techinally) and when she got to the top, she didn't get it. They wondered why and asked outloud to themselfs, and Zira said "Because we don't like Banana's", and they were shocked, after awhile Dr. Milo (One of the apes incase you forgot which ones are which) Got killed by an Ape in the cell next to them.
There were some problems in the movie, such as when they usually talk, their mouth doesn't move (But like I said in my other review, it is in the 1968, when they made the first film), They don't listen to them most of the time which I will explain in the next review and it was boring half of the time.
I did like how it focused on Zira and Cornelius.
My final Verdict is 8/10.

Beneath the Planet of the Apes (1970)
Now I hate doing sequels cause people haven't seen the first, and most movies have the ending added again, so I am going to skip it to the main story.
So basically Brent (James Franciscus Main character) goes looking for Taylor and his crew and ends up crashing into the same time period that Taylor did and his crew, Nova goes looking for help since Taylor (Big Spoiler) Goes missing. (Big Spoiler over) You might be wondering why it is a big spoiler? And that those tags shouldn't be there, and for your infomation, they are required and it has to do with the ending and beginning (Which has the ending again) of this movie. Anyway, she takes Taylor's Dog tags looking for help like I said, she stumbles over Brent (Not Literally) and Brent looks alot like Taylor and I am pretty sure, Nova got confused for abit. Anyway she goes to him, and Brent asks if she knows Taylor, she gives him the dog tags and asked her some questions not realizing she can't speak. Anyway he hops onto Nova's horse with Nova on it, they go to the town the same one that had taylor and of course, they got off the horse and Brent followed Nova to Zira's and Cornelius's house. Zira and Cornelius got confused since they thought it was Taylor but he explained that he is not and is looking for him. Attempting to flee the city, Brent and Nova are captured by gorillas. Ursus orders they be used for target practice, but Zira helps them escape. They hide in a cave which Brent soon discovers is the ruins of the Queensboro Plaza station of the New York City Subway
I shall not mention the ending in the next post, cause it is required. But to see this ending, you gotta watch it Or read my blog post.
Now so far This is my second Favorite movie of the franchise. Great Acting, actors, scenery, storyline, costume and makeup.
7.5/10

Welcome to the biggest review post(s) on this blog, now since there are 6 movies (1 is a remake) I'd recommend break's being taken.
This is a Movie Review site and THERE will be spoilers.
Planet of the Apes (1968)
Astronauts Taylor (Charlton Heston Main Character), Landon (Robert Gunner), Dodge (Jeff Burton), crash on a planet after being in deep hibernation on a Planet that looks like earth, one of the Astronauts Stewart (an uncredited Dianne Stanley) Die of a leak meaning that she turned old and just died. Anyway they crash into water, and have to swim out of the Ship onto land, Taylor, landon and Dodge tries to find a town but they find people, cut up clothes, in a corn field they are mute though. Anyway after being caught of stealing food, apes come in and catch them on horses (Apes on horses, not humans), They end up shooting, knocking out, and throwing nets on the humans, Dodge was killed, Landon is knocked unconscious, and Taylor is shot in the throat. The gorillas take Taylor to Ape City, where his life is saved by two chimpanzee scientists, animal psychologist Zira (Kim Hunter Second main character) and surgeon Galen (Wright King). Upon awakening, Taylor now housed in a cage with a girl whom he later calls Nova (Linda Harrison Third Main Character) discovers that his throat wound has rendered him mute.
Taylor discovers that the apes, who can talk, are in control and are divided into a strict caste system: the gorillas as police, military, hunters and workers; the orangutans as administrators, politicians, lawyers and religious clerics; and the chimpanzees as intellectuals and scientists. Humans, who cannot talk, are considered feral vermin and are hunted for sport and either killed outright, enslaved for manual labor, domesticated as pets and used for scientific experimentation.
Zira and her fiancé, Cornelius (Roddy McDowall Fourth Main Character), an archaeologist, take an interest in Taylor.
And no more Info unless you go to the Wikipedia Page, Read the novel or even bother to watch the movies, I watched the movies fyi.
Since it is a 1986 film, people might think its crap but it isn't, it was very good in those days. Great acting, makeup, costums, effects, actors, storyline and scenery.
I Give it 7.5/10
Could be abit better in some ways but hey, thats what the remake is for.
