As a US Air Force pilot, Wahlberg crash lands on a foreign planet, only to be captured by highly evolved intelligent apes (led by a costumed Michael Clarke Duncan) that run their society like a violent, fascist dictatorship and have the helmets to match. Humans are marginalized and degraded as captive slaves, a treatment that inspires Wahlberg to escape...
