feeling listless

Review! Planet of the Apes, reviewed by Peter Bradshaw of The Guardian: "Everything here is just that bit less sophisticated: the acting is outrageous and the plot lacks opposable thumbs. Who would have thought that in a modern movie we would need to see the year-numbers spinning round on the spaceship dashboard, like a petrol pump or something from HG Wells, to tell the stoopid audience that we are going forward in time - or that we would need to give that away so early in the plot anyway?" No wonder.
