**A picture of the artist painting a picture of the artist painting a picture of the artist painting a picture of the artist painting a landscape.** Indeed. Talk, talk and some more talk. Then they all decide to talk some more - taking a break for a little more talking - before finally deciding on talking just a little while longer. These actors must have had sore tongues after the film was completed. Some of them hospitalised with repetitive strain on the jawbone. A very talky film whi…

A very good sequel. <em>'Escape from the Planet of the Apes'</em> is a clear improvement on (the good) <em>'Beneath the Planet of the Apes'</em> and isn't that far adrift from the 1968 original.

They are taken to a zoo, fed oranges (?) and then subjected to a president…

**_The reverse of the first film_** After Taylor’s space vessel lands in the waters near the coast of SoCal, military officials are astonished to find it occupied by three apes in spacesuits (including Roddy McDowall and Kim Hunter). While there are those who embrace the talking chimpanzees (Bradford Dillman, Natalie Trundy and Ricardo Montalban), there are also those who view them as a threat to humankind (Eric Braeden). “Escape from the Planet of the Apes” (1971) keeps things interes…
