🎬 MovieFinder's Take

Treachery and Greed on the Planet of the Apes is a very strong film rated 7.6/10. Great direction and performances make this one well worth adding to your watchlist.

A high rating speaks for itself — this film found its audience and didn't let them down. Trust the collective taste.

A classic from 1980. They don't make them like this anymore — which is exactly why you should watch it. Best for: any evening when you want quality cinema with no compromises.
