In Reply to: The original "Planet of the Apes" posted by mishmashmusic on October 27, 2004 at 07:06:03:
While I think the original "Planet of the Apes" is a very fine film, I find it overrated (but still FAR superior to any of its sequels) and inferior to Boulle's book.The movie, while keeping the core of the story intact, certainly changed much of the plot dynamics of the book, to the detriment of the story.
I saw the movie before I read the novel. I also understand that some of the Boulle's more salient plot points were forced out of the film by the executive producers via the old "you cut that out or forget about financing" threat. Who knows how much better the film could have been had the producer and director had less studio interference.
