The Night They Saved Christmas—bland, low-grade television movie—shows Art Carney in a latter career work. While cute, the sweet theme of Christmas and the very good stage settings do not allow this movie to rise to classic Christmas entertainment fare. But, if a family has run out of Christmas movies to watch, this film will serve well to fill a family holiday night on days leading up to the 'big day'.

Battle for the Planet of the Apes—final film in the old movie series—serves fans
of the original Planet of the Apes films well. This movie series has
been a great ride to its end. WOW! What a concept! The story very nicely and
creatively turns the mind inside out to contemplate a reversal of dominance. This movie series has a series of newer remakes, but this series certainly does not lack in
storyline, portrayal, costuming, or background staging. This film is a very
nice, nostalgic return for fans of the old series.
