So much average
Excellent but underrated film
Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.
It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
Loved this movie ... honestly I believe its underrated
Possibly could be better if didn't used too much special effects and countless graphic computer,a deep sin customary used nowadays,to do a movie like that in large proportions totally in studio is quite insane,they should be shoot in Africa's jungle despite so expensive costs and efforts in benefit to the movie,neither they have to provide a proper Tarzan,not a fake super-hero introduced and implied in this picture,some acting scenes is quite ridiculous like when assault in the train...another fail is Tarzan moving in vines,so fast way in unbelievable...in stampede is another delirious scene end up in harbor in so contrived acting...African landscape previously taped saves the picture!!When we'll have a decent Tarzan??? Resume: First watch: 2017 / How many: 1 / Source: Blu-ray / Rating: 7
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.
