Plot Synopsis
Storyline
It is the year 2029: Astronaut Leo Davidson boards a pod cruiser on a Space Station for a "routine" reconnaissance mission. But an abrupt detour through a space time wormhole lands him on a strange planet where talking apes rule over the human race. With the help of a sympathetic chimpanzee activist named Ari and a small band of human rebels, Leo leads the effort to evade the advancing Gorilla Army led by General Thade and his most trusted warrior Attar. Now the race is on to reach a sacred temple within the planet's Forbidden Zone to discover the shocking secrets of mankind's past - and the key to its future. Written by Tim1370

Trivia
Michael Clarke Duncan had sprained his ankle during filming and was forced to go to the hospital in his full gorilla makeup. See more »Goofs
There are numerous apparent plot holes in the story which are explained away in supplementary material (DVD booklet, novelization, etc). This includes the frequently asked question regarding the presence of horses. These remain goofs as far as the casual viewer is concerned, but they are the subject of much heated debate and are not now included in this list. See more »Quotes

The movie looks amazing. The story is one of the lamest I've seen in a while. There little or no character involvement and the little that they did, was super weak. The script was crap and I'm really suprized that Tim Burton would have let it slide. I'm really suprised at how disappointed I was with this film. Really suprised!
