- Reviewed in Canada on October 28, 2024Verified PurchaseNot a techno cool as the reboot, but these 5 movies are a must get for any fan. The social commentary in these movies, which I never realized, is still relevant today. I love these films. Watch them in order and everything makes sense. My only complaint is the volume is too low, so I’m running at 85/100 for sound. No other issues.

- Reviewed in Canada on October 24, 2016Verified PurchaseAwesome version. Great way to get all these movies in a sleak package. I love these movies so was excited to watch them on bluray. I couple of my "teeth" were broken so the discs were slipping around a bit, but that's just bad luck I'd say. This is the basic package, it doesn't have all the features you would get in the single disc versions, but if you're just looking to watch the movies. They have been given the bluray treatment and look and sound awesome. Great pricepoint, can't go wrong.

Reviewed in Canada on March 1, 2024Verified PurchaseTrès bien interprété ! Les protagonistes sont formidables. Ils sont tous et toute crédible dans leurs rôles. Même Darwin serait d'accord avec la ligne directrice de ce roman de science fiction !
- Reviewed in Canada on August 9, 2014Verified PurchaseThis Series of movies is just awesome. Picture and sound of the Blu rays look and sound so great. However I give the set of 5 classic movies a 4 star rating only because the extras are not that great. While U have the lawgiver intros, which is awesome and more background on the series. The commentaries are only on 1 movie and is not done as well in this classic Apes set , compared to say the Classic James Bond films of the 1960's, 70's and 80's. In that series there some one talking and introducing the various audio clips In the Bond films. The Apes set here; the commentary has audio clips as well but it the clips are few and far a part, no one taking to fill in the space when on. This is on the The Planet of the Apes. (1st film) so in the end this set only good for the upgrade in picture and sound. Features for what it is. could go with out for what is there. Other then that the set is good.

5.0 out of 5 stars Zeitloser Klassiker
Verified PurchaseDie “Planet der Affen - Legacy Collection” ist eine beeindruckende Zusammenstellung, die Fans der legendären Science-Fiction-Reihe auf eine nostalgische Reise durch die Entwicklung der Planet der Affen-Saga mitnimmt. Diese Box enthält sechs DVDs, die die ursprünglichen Filme sowie umfangreiches Bonusmaterial umfassen und so ein ideales Set für Sammler und Neulinge der Reihe bieten.
Inhalt und Filme
Die Box umfasst die originalen fünf Filme der klassischen Reihe sowie den neuen Film “Planet der Affen – Prevolution”, der 2011 die moderne Interpretation der Serie einleitete. Die reihenfolge der Filme in der Collection ist wie folgt:
1. Planet der Affen (1968) – Der erste und wohl ikonischste Film der Reihe, in dem Astronaut George Taylor (gespielt von Charlton Heston) auf einem fernen Planeten landet, auf dem die Affen die Macht übernommen haben und die Menschen unterdrücken.
2. Rückkehr zum Planet der Affen (1970) – Die Geschichte geht weiter, als eine neue Gruppe von Astronauten auf dem Planeten landet und erneut auf die Affen-Gesellschaft trifft.
3. Flucht vom Planet der Affen (1971) – Eine interessante Wendung, in der Affen aus der Zukunft in die Vergangenheit reisen, was die Welt, wie wir sie kennen, auf den Kopf stellt.
4. Eroberung vom Planet der Affen (1972) – Die Affen beginnen, die Menschen zu beherrschen, was zu einem dramatischen Showdown führt.
5. Schlacht um den Planet der Affen (1973) – Die letzte Schlacht, in der die Affen gegen die Menschen kämpfen, um die endgültige Kontrolle über den Planeten zu übernehmen.
6. Planet der Affen – Prevolution (2011) – Ein neuer Beginn der Serie, der die Entstehungsgeschichte von Caesar, dem Anführer der Affen, und die Entwicklung der Affenintelligenz erzählt.
Diese Zusammenstellung erlaubt es, die Entwicklung der Planet der Affen-Reihe zu verfolgen, von den ersten Schritten des Originals bis hin zu der modernen Interpretation, die sich durch beeindruckende visuelle Effekte und eine tiefergehende Storyline auszeichnet.
Bonusmaterial
Die Legacy Collection kommt mit einer großen Menge an Bonusmaterial, das für Fans ein echtes Highlight ist. Die DVDs beinhalten unter anderem:
• Dokumentationen über die Entstehung der Filme
• Interviews mit den Darstellern und Machern
• Making-of-Videos, die interessante Einblicke in die Produktionsprozesse geben
• Entfallene Szenen und alternative Enden
Für Sammler und Cineasten bieten diese Extras die Möglichkeit, mehr über die Entstehung der legendären Filme und die Entwicklung der Figuren und Effekte zu erfahren.
Bild- und Tonqualität
Die Bild- und Tonqualität der Sammlung variiert je nach Film. Die ursprünglichen Filme aus den 1960er- und 1970er-Jahren zeigen natürlich einige Alterungsspuren in der Bildqualität. Dennoch wurden die Filme in dieser Box gut restauriert, um den besten visuellen Eindruck zu bieten. Besonders der erste Film von 1968 kann hier glänzen, da er in seiner restaurierten Version wirklich beeindruckend wirkt.
Die neueren Filme, wie Prevolution, bieten eine exzellente 4K-ähnliche Bildqualität und einen klaren, modernen 5.1 Surround Sound, der die Action-Szenen packend zur Geltung bringt.
Fazit
Die “Planet der Affen - Legacy Collection” ist ein absolutes Muss für Film-Fans, die sowohl die Ursprünge als auch die moderne Interpretation der Planet der Affen-Reihe schätzen. Es ist eine umfangreiche Sammlung, die nicht nur die Filme selbst umfasst, sondern auch viele interessante Einblicke hinter die Kulissen bietet. Sammler und Nostalgiker kommen hier auf ihre Kosten, ebenso wie die neuen Generationen von Zuschauern, die sich für die jüngsten Entwicklungen der Reihe interessieren.
Vorteile:
• Komplette Sammlung der klassischen Filme plus der neueren Interpretationen
• Großartiges Bonusmaterial, das den Filmfans interessante Einblicke in die Entstehung bietet
• Gute Bild- und Tonqualität, vor allem bei den neueren Filmen
Nachteile:
• Die Bildqualität der älteren Filme kann stellenweise schwächer sein
• Es gibt kein neues Material für die älteren Filme (z. B. keine modernen Interviews oder Dokus)
Gesamtbewertung: 4,5/5
Eine ausgezeichnete Sammlung für Fans der Reihe und alle, die sich mit der legendären Geschichte von Planet der Affen beschäftigen möchten.

4.0 out of 5 stars 4/5
Verified PurchaseIt's an Special edition but besides the documentary dvd there's not much special in there. Every disc contains the trailers for the whole saga,so you're not gonna watch them in every disc.
The good thing about this special edition box is to have the whole saga in the same pack.
The movies are great. The first movie is a classic and a master piece but the other four are pretty good too. You'll enjoy them as science fiction movies but if you go deeper they'll make you think as they raise many questions and moral dilemas. Darwin would love them!

5.0 out of 5 stars Monkey Magic!
Verified PurchaseThis region A box set wisely omits the Burton missfire and gives us a spectacular presentations of the five original movies.
Planet of the Apes.
Heston's cynical nihilsist performance, McDowall, Hunter and Evans incredibly nuanced acting through layers of John Chambers groundbreaking make-ups, Jerry Goldsmith's weird and beautiful soundtrack and one of the greatest endings in cinema history. Planet is one of the greatest sci-fi movies of all time and still stands up well today.
The disc comes loaded with far too many extras to list here both archive and new.
Beneath the Planet of the Apes.
The first sequel is good but lacks focus. James Fransiscus arrives on what we now know to be future Earth looking for Taylor but discovering an ape army and the last mutated survivors of the human race who worship total destruction. Heston appears bookending the movie and making sure mankind goes out with a bang in a downer of an ending for everyone. Knock a star off for the abscence of McDowall and the obvious drop in budget.
The disc features an isolated score, a good featurette and loads of stills and behind the scenes material
Escape from the Planet of the Apes.
Three Hairy survivors from the apocalypse crash in modern day, (OK 70's) California. One is accidentaly killed leaving Cornelius and Zira, (McDowall and Hunter) to become the toast of Hollywood until the truth about the fate of mankind comes out when Zira is on the grape juice plus. Essentially a backwards reworking of the original with the apes becoming fugitives from the oppressive government forces the movie starts off light and frothy but the ending is grim and brutal. I must admit this is my least favourite as it loses the sci-fi setting of the other movies and only has three apes but McDowall and Hunter have real chemistry and the ending packs an emotional punch.
Extras similar to Beneath with some archive footage of Don Taylor directing.
Conquest of the Planet of the Apes.
Presented here in the far superior original cut that Fox extensively edited for the ratings board, Conquest is a revelation . Dark, oppressive and filmed in a hand held documentary style this is strong allegorical stuff. Detailing the revolution of the apes lead by Ceasar, (McDowall playing his son from the previous film) against thier tyranical human masters. Conquest packs a wallop that far exceeded what Fox executives were expecting. McDowalls performance in this movie is incredible. Even more so considering the thick latex that covers his face. Featuring extensvely more violence and blood than the theatrical version and the original hope destroying ending this movie is the suprise trump card of the set. There is evidence of extreme penny-piching however but the film is powerful and unrelenting.
The usual slew of exras. The featurette is very interesting as it details the censorship problems and also the theatrical cut which is a bit redundant after seeing the unrated version.
Battle for the Planet of the Apes.
Last time out for the original films and Battle also is presented in an unrated version but fails to keep the impetus of Conquest as Fox were wary of losing the child audience so mortified by the tone of the last film. This can really be blamed on the drastic scaling down of the budget with each film costing substantially less than the previous until veteran director J. Lee Thompson (who also helmed Conquest) had the budget of a T.V. movie to portray man vs ape's final showdown. Shots of trees and cars exploding are filmed from multiple angles and replayed through the final battle scenes to give prodiction value but it's a dated trick that never really convinces. Still McDowall is his dependable self and Claude Akins nasty gorrila General Aldo is good fun, especially when he knocks Ceasar's son out of a tree and kills him which leads to his final undoing. Ape shall never kill ape!
It all ends with an unprobable harmonious finale and some fine ham from the Lawgiver (John Huston).
Battle also has similar extras to Conquest including the theatrical cut.
The set comes in a slip case with a very nicely produced book that features lots of information. My only critcism would be that the book is more or less verbatim from the featurettes but it's a very minor quibble.
The UK blu-ray set is a fraction of the price of this US couterpart but is cheap looking and has no book and most importantly does not contain the unrated versions of Conquest or Battle. So if you intend to go ape and have region A plaback (please note this will NOT play in a standard UK player) this is the only way to go.
