The Legend of Tarzan isn't a bad film, just a disappointingly timid one.

A forgettable blockbuster that's already starting to fade from memory.

It's too violent for young viewers, too dumb for adults, and not thrilling or engaging in any way, it's difficult to figure out who "The Legend of Tarzan" is for.

The climax is hilariously ridiculous, but I found the film, as a whole, enjoyable and entertaining.

The Legend of Tarzan, the new adventure of the monkey colleague, produces me a huge sloppiness, a boredom that seemed almost endless. [Full review in Spanish]

Yates tries to create tense buildups to explosive action scenes, but his gratuitous slow-motion fetish inevitably mucks it up.

The cinematography (in The Legend of Tarzan) is spectacular and makes you want to hop on a plane and fly to Africa.

David Yates may never get to make a sequel (or a prequel) to this story but it will remain in fine company alongside Andrew Stanton's JOHN CARTER as a pitch perfect vision of the writing of Edgar Rice Burroughs.

Honestly, if they could have just settled for broad, barely there social commentary with the occasional gorilla fist fight, this could have been a minor success. A Phil Collins song or two couldn't have hurt either.

Although it may not spark a sequel, The Legend of Tarzan is nice escapist summer entertainment for fans of one of the movies' most classic heroes.

The movie does look nice and the cast has decent chemistry but it's just not what you want in a Tarzan movie.

Just because something is classic, doesn't make it timeless.

Unfortunately, despite a great cast and a great look, the film never quite manages to capture the spirit of the story in a truly engaging way.
Full Review | Original Score: 2/5

They wanted to sell us The Legend of Tarzan as another hit blockbuster, but it fails loudly. [Full Review in Spanish]

It's a nice pulp story with solid acting, cinematography and editing.

The problem, though, is that this Tarzan really isn't very interesting, with Skarsgard's six pack about the only thing he brings to the table.
