Yes! But you never really sympathized with the apes. The remakes of the movie show man as the aggressor paints the apes as more noble.

From what I remember, probably because of the costumes, in the 1968 movie, the apes were depicted as "endearingly clumsy", mostly harmless (except for the hunt).

The Apes were acting human, almost 'white'.

I don't know about the other versions.
