• Eric Greene's book is a thoughtful discussion of the ideas present in the Apes movies. Even if the makers might deny that they intended them to be social commentary, the Apes movies certainly inspire a review of the social scene in the 1960's from which these movies sprang forth.
• By comparison, how something like Star Wars can be praised as mythology and the Apes movies ignored is beyond me.
