I never felt anything for his character at all, and that was partly his performance and partly the woeful script/direction. Going to take a risk- check, gets sucked through a new dimension- check, captured by Apes- check, escape- check and so on and so on. The hero of the new film in Mark Whalberg was one-note, but he was given such a boring character who just went through the motions. The remake should have been a film in its own right, and should have focused on creating a compelling story and universe, instead of opting for lame jokes revolving around Charlton Heston in ape make-up as Thade's father. I groaned completely during Heston's cameo, particularly due the referrals to the original film. The script was awful, as well as the integration of one-liners from the original films to this new one. This is, without a doubt, his worst film that I've seen! I cannot really compliment the direction of this movie, as it seemed self-aware and indulgent in being the "remake". What really let the remake of 'Planet of the Apes' down, was by in large, Tim Burton. And, finally some of the cinematography was fairly nice. Helena Bonham Carter was also fairly decent in this film. Okay, that's good! Tim Roth was amazing in his performance but his character was not that great and seriously lacked depth. The make-up was excellent, but inconsistent in parts, but I still feel that area should have been nominated for an Oscar.

I left the cinema very disappointed! Disappointment can cloud criticism though, and sometimes makes you bitter towards a movie and not see the positives.
Then, in 2001, I got advance tickets and I began to watch one of the most anticipated movies for that year.
Granted, I was never a huge fan of the POTA films, but seeing the potential here for a remake or revision by Burton made my mouth water. Nothing could surely go wrong with Burton in the director's chair. Why? Better visual effects being 2001 and all, one of my favorite actors in Tim Roth starring in it, and a great director named Tim Burton. When I saw the original, I was fully expecting the remake to kick some serious butt, and be far superior to the 1960s version. Awhile back, I commented on the original 'Planet of the Apes' film prior to seeing this remake at the cinemas.
