Looking forward to see this. Haven't seen the first one though, so can't compare. (don't want to see first one anyway).
IIRC, their was planet of the apes, then few more with fights between apes & humans, then some apes find a the space capsule & go back in time and have a child that leads to more intelligent apes & people domesiticate them & they eventually overthrow the humans leading to the original film.
and yes, I fancy seeing "reboot".
