Retro releases just can’t stop surpassing one another. First Warner began its campaign to bring out cine-classics that both received, for the most part, great transfers and a nifty booklet casing and then Paramount dropped The Godfather bombshell as the seminal trilogy got ‘made’. Well, now Fox is in on the act as it announces its ‘Planet Of The Apes: 40 Year Evolution Blu-ray Collection’.

Featuring a near-endless list of HD extras to accompany the five films in this set, a 2.35:1/1080p AVC-encoded transfer and a 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrack all signal that the monkey madness of this series is going to be your new best (pri)mate in the home cinema.
