Review Summaries
"Cats and dogs have been wiped out and apes have supplanted them but when the humans learn that apes can learn they become slaves. Ceasar an advanced ape whose parents came from the future leads the apes in a revolt against the humans after the man who raised him has been killed. "
Rob Gill, Resident planet of the apes Scholar
"Conquest Of The Planet Of The Apes takes place around 20 years after the previous film (Escape From The Planet Of The Apes) had ended. The son of Cornelius and Zira is alive, taken care of by a kindly circus owner (Montalban). But when he is killed, Ceaser (McDowall) wages an all out war to free his ape race from control over the humans who have enslaved them. This is the darkest chapter of the apes saga, with a high degree of violence. This film is the most highly underappreciated film of the series. McDowall's portrayal of Ceaser is top notch! Followed by Battle For The Planet Of The Apes."
