Conquest of the Planet of the Apes Movie Review 1972

The apes turn the tables on the human Earth population when they lead a revolt against their cruel masters in the distant year of 1990. Sure, there's plenty of cliches--but the story drags you along. The 4th film in the series. Followed by "Battle for the Planet of the Apes."
