On Thursday night I tootled along to the Contemporary Urban Centre to see Planet of the Apes. Not the abomination Tim Burton released but the superb 1968 version. Sadly after the events of the beginning of the week not many other people made the trip to see this classic - which is fairly ironic when you consider some of the social subtexts of the movie.
Anyway, we'd gone along as I thought it would be a great way to prepare for Rise of the Planet of the Apes, although I was a little concerned the new film would pale in comparison to the original. I needn't have worried, Rise turned out to be thoughtful and intelligent with surprising moments of action - and I even shed a tear at the end (but then I am a big softy when it comes to animals, real or not.)
