It's good apes versus guerrilla gorillas in the fifth, final and least effective entry in the sci-fi fantasy series. Roddy McDowall heads the cast, as our heroes attempt to restore racial harmony to Earth and make humans social equals. Spotting who's who under the hairy masks will while away the time as this threadbare monkey business wends its time-warp way back to the beginning of the original Planet of the Apes. Endless action can't disguise the cheapness of the production or the lack of novelty and story values in a rather desperate effort to milk the idea one time too many. Fans of the film series and TV show will want to catch it, though.

The fifth and final episode in the Planet of the Apes series. After the collapse of human civilization, a community of intelligent apes led by Caesar lives in harmony with a group of humans. Gorilla General Aldo tries to cause an ape civil war and a community of human mutants who live beneath a destroyed city try to conquer those whom they perceive as enemies. All leading to the finale.
