Planet of the Apes is a lame action adventure, plagued by a drab script and a leaden lead in Mark Wahlberg. Tim Burton appears straight-jacketed by the venture.
Tim Roth, however, is an impressive ape.
Had the beginning and middle had anything to recommend them, I might have ben more offended by the end. As it was, the end was awful, but it was the end, so I had that for which to be thankful.
