For more details about Escape From the Planet of the Apes on Blu-ray, see the Escape From the Planet of the Apes Blu-ray Review Starring: Roddy McDowall, Kim Hunter, Bradford Dillman, Natalie Trundy, Eric Braeden Director: Don Taylor Escape From the Planet of the Apes Blu-ray, Video QualityEscape From the Planet of the Apes on Blu-ray features a 1080p, 2.35:1-framed transfer. The video retains a very similar look and feel to the last film. While obviously taking place in "modern" Earth as opposed to the distant future, the color schematic looks similar, and detail remains high. The picture is rock solid throughout, with fine clarity and detail to die for on an older picture such as this. The interior of the prison cell housing the recently arrived apes, for example, showcases nice texture along the walls and on the bars. The military uniforms and other assorted clothing seen throughout appear nicely rendered, too, lifelike and practically touchable through the screen. Blacks may look a touch faded in a few corners, but are otherwise acceptable. Flesh tones retain a pleasing natural appearance. Escape From the Planet of the Apes is yet another fine looking title in this series, and Fox is to be commended for their excellent job on this and the previous two Apes discs. Escape From the Planet of the Apes Blu-ray, Audio Quality![]() Escape From the Planet of the Apes arrives on Blu-ray with a DTS-HD MA 5.1 lossless soundtrack, in addition to the original monaural mix. The audio remains front and center-heavy, as was the case with the previous two Apes films, with the music that plays over the opening credits distinct and clear, a fine reproduction that feels more robust and pronounced than one might expect coming predominantly from the center. It features nice punch on the low end, too. Likewise, a similar effect is heard and felt as adventure-style music plays during an escape sequence in chapter 17. There are a few instances of discrete effects spread across the left or right front channels, but such cases are the exception to the rule. Even a scene featuring Cornelius at a boxing match features next-to-no ambient crowd noise emanating from anywhere but the center channel. Still, the music and effects are presented with sufficient clarity, and dialogue reproduction remains solid. This track is about as good as one may expect.
