    There were some errors in the story line, but overall I enjoyed the movie. Really made up for the 50 cent abomination I watched a few days ago. Anyone else here watched/enjoyed it?

    It was okay. The first with Charlton Heston is still by far and away the best. The book is not too bad either though a little diferent - same bloke that wrote Bridge over the River Kwai.

        No! Now they look a bit naff but it still works. Was amazing when it first came out and people still thought Heston could act. :-)

          omg... the bridge over the river kwai is screened almost every year on new years day or summing here in South Africa... *dies*... Don't get me wrong, it was definitely a good movie, but there's only so many times you can flog a dead horse :|

            Watched it a couple of weeks ago, and I really enjoyed it. I think only once did my brain go "that ape isn't really there". The movie is quite an amazing technological feat, and as a bonus, I found it very enjoyable to watch.

              I just watched it last weekend for the first time. I liked it. Wasn't the best, wasn't the worst.

              I wasn't, now I am, then I won't be anymore.

                Michael O'Leary is reputed to be funding a remake of that. The working title is Bridge over the River Lea though so I shouldn't get too excited.

                  Same over here with first, African Queen and then when they realized that was becoming a little stale, The Great Escape. That ended a couple of years ago and I have yet to spot the replacement.
