The Legend of Tarzan Reviews
December 5, 2020
Apparently, despite holding records for being the most filmed character in cinema, Tarzan's story isn't popular enough to dispense with dreadful, brooding flashbacks.

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 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]

This movie had no reason to exist.

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.

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