A Disappointing Continuation

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

1. Tarzan's 'brother' repeatedly punched him with full force as he was protecting Jane. It should have broken his spine.
2. Samuel L. Jackson jumping off the hill into the jungle and somehow surviving it.
3. Vines that go on forever. The trees must be extremely high.
4. Djimon Hounsou and his tribe took out everyone within seconds, but for unknown reasons chose Christoph Waltz to be the only survivor so they could make a deal. It's the white suit that sparked their curiosity, isn't it?
5. The most annoying of those nonsensical scenes: As Tarzan and Jackson saw those gorillas, he told Jackson he had to fight one, his bro, as if there was no other way but to fight. But after he lost the fight (to really no one's surprise), he told Jackson to bow down deeply so the gorilla would leave him alone. Jane did the same thing minutes later. Tarzan's an idiot to insist on fighting!

The Legend of Tarzan feels like the sequel to a much more interesting film... I wish Yates would have just focused on the elements of Tarzan's story that made it so interesting in the first place instead of foolhardily trying to modernize it. A story with banal characters and wasted performances that falls into terrible paternalism, has a tangled action and it's poor and repetitive.

as a Tarzan fan from the Weismuller days and Gordon Scott's three movies (yes there were more but only three that are any good) I found this version the most realistic, faithful rendition of the Ape Man yet. it is a fun, exciting movie that makes you believe that if there really was a Tarzan this is how he would be. I would very much like to see a sequel. this is a movie well worth viewing.

Tarzan has always been a LEGEND!!!!! And he will continue to be a legend. Following on the heels of the Jungle Book remake and throwing its release-date lot in with Spielberg's BFG, this revisit to an equally beloved childhood character is in good company when it comes to the more serious end of the family movie genre. While animated flicks and new creations can rely on slapstick setups, 'hilarious' side-kick characters, modern-song medleys and loud, loud, loud colours, movies like these tend to carefully present old favourites in a more subtle package. The Legend of Tarzan, at its best, does exactly this – presenting a Sunday matinée movie full of good acting, a simple story, and blended CGI
with a calmness that comes with not having your senses assaulted by lurid colour and noise. The Legend of Tarzan is a solid ode to a character that continues to draw the imagination of children and filmmakers alike. Overall a perfectly fine family movie that trundles along at an even pace, and offers an oasis of calm in the barrage of over-hyped kids' movies making the summer circuit. The CGI used in the film is unbelievable I mean at times I totally forgot that it was CGI (Computer Generated Imagery)it was well and truly used to its full potential in this film. Furthermore, the aesthetics of it were amazing, there were not any blinding scenes or dull scenes that made it difficult for the audience to watch. In addition, they really stepped up their game with this as it was a valiant film through and through. I have already seen the film three times and I would confidently recommend this to anyone.
