Query: Not quite a waste of time

I was disappointed with the original movie, having previously read the book by Pierre Boulle. This version is even worse. Aside from straying even further from the book, I looked at the makeup on some of the actors and wondered what had happened to all of the advances in special effects and makeup from the last 30 years.I must say that the explanation for the origin of the ape society was a nice twist, but the ending left me with the question as to WHY things went as they did since Captain Davidson presumably went BACK in time, judging from the chronometer in the pod.There were isolated moments that were entertaining, but I doubt if I'll bother to watch it again.
