Feature Film

Planet of the Apes VI

Planet of the Apes

by William Broyles, Jr., Lawrence Konner, and Mark Rosenthal, directed by Tim Burton
(premiered at an unknown movie theater, New York City, 23 July 2001)

I found two redeeming features in this melodramatic complete remake of the first Planet of the Apes film: Helena Bonham Carter and a time-travel twist at the end that was beyond my understanding. —Michael Main

In this temple as in the hearts of the apes for whom he saved the planet the memory of General Thade is enshrined forever

A long line of armored apes with medival weapons trails off into the distance
while a massive ape army approaches.

Animated Feature Film

The Polar Express

by Robert Zemeckis and William Broyles, Jr., directed by Robert Zemeckis
(Chicago International Film Festival, 21 October 2004)

You didn’t think that Robert Zemeckis put that flux capacitor in the engine room for no reason, did you? Then again, maybe he did, because apart from the three Back to the Future Easter eggs, I didn’t spot a lick of time travel in The Polar Express. —Michael Main

Boy: (blowing train whistle) I’ve wanted to do that my whole life!

Out in the nighttime snow, a small boy stares up at an oncoming steam
locomotive and its bright headlight.
