Featured review
Even this "making of" commands more dignity than Tim Burton's rehash!
I am no fan of "The making of....whatever" as it invariably tells you nothing and more likely than not, totally wrecks the film itself once you have seen the out-takes or "How they did...."
This is an extremely well put together and interesting look at the original "Apes" series, more so now, having the late Roddy McDowall as narrator. (Roddy you may remember played Caesar!)
Might have been an idea if Tim Burton had watched this before embarking on his pointless re-hash with Mark Wahlberg!
