- Synopsis
- It's the far future. The mass of humanity has descended into speechless savagery, kept as captive animals by the talking apes who have inherited the world. Two astronauts from our time have landed here, retracing the path of their lost comrade, Captain Taylor (Charlton Heston). Unfortunately, they've landed in the middle of a grim situation. Warlike gorillas are preparing to eliminate the last shards of shattered human civilization, a degenerate, subterranean cult worshipping the greatest of all human achievements--the cobalt bomb. As well as rescuing Taylor, the two men have to stop the gorillas from wiping out humanity ... and stop humanity from fulfilling their self-appointed, self-destructive destiny.

- Critics' reviews

-
"A disappointing, quickie follow-up that vainly tries to imitate the look of the original on an obviously limited budget"
-
"A workmanlike sequel, it lacks the wit and intelligence of its predecessor."
-
"This sequel to 'Planet of the Apes' isn't bad, but degenerates the original conception into routine comic strip adventure."
