Judging by the amount of time everybody spends swimming, the African jungle resembles Hornsey Baths filled with oversized pot plants.

If you want to see Bo at the peak of her acting powers, check out Tommy Boy instead, where she plays a plastic stereotype.

Silliness abounds, so much so that the picture comes off closer to a comedy than the romantic action-adventure it was meant to be.

Nice to look at, but dear Lord...

This cinematic atrocity truly is one of the all-time worsts.

Of course it's completely ridiculous, but at the same time it has a certain disarming charm.

This opus will disappoint both Tarzan fans and Bo admirers.

To describe the film as inept would be to miss the point, which is to present Mrs. Derek in as many different poses, nude and seminude, as there are days of the year, all in something less than two hours.

"Produced" by Bo and "directed and photographed" by John, Tarzan reduced Edgar Rice Burrough's far-from-classic work to the level of a magazine spread on a Playboy bunny in the, er, bush.

Lots of untittilating nudity
