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.
