Treachery and Greed on the Planet of the Apes (TV Movie 1980). 1h 30m | Not Rated

“These days the Planet of the Apes television series is readily available on DVD, but that wasnu0026#39;t the case in the early 1980u0026#39;s when five TV movies were made by editing together episodes of the Planet of the Apes TV series. At that time the TV movies gave loyal fans of the Planet of the Apes series a much wanted glimpse of the long canceled TV show, and I really enjoyed it. I especially enjoyed Roddy McDowall as Galen. McDowall said in interviews that Galen was his favorite Planet of the Apes role, and he is my favorite character of the entire franchise as well. The TV series allowed McDowall to play a variety of different types of apes thanks to Galenu0026#39;s knack for impersonation, and we definitely get to see that in this TV movie. When taken on its own terms as two combined TV episodes, Treachery and Greed on the Planet of the Apes delivers solid Apes entertainment.”
