The writers and director don't know whether Tarzan is Spider Man, Batman or some other action hero - but he certainly isn't Tarzan. Tarzan replies something like - "The Ostrich is telling you it can trample you." And then, the Ostriches run off. Tarzan's mate asks Tarzan what did the Ostrich say. At last, I thought, something is going to happen. Then there was the scene when giant ostriches nearly trample Tarzan and his mate. Totally irrelevant to the plot or story, and I'm still not sure why it was included. I did however witness the butterfly land on Jane's shoulder, then fly off. When my partner told me she thought this was the worst movie ever, and that she was confused, I couldn't help her again - I'd been asleep. In fact my seat was so comfortable, and the movie so bad, that I fell asleep three times. How, in this modern day, with such high standards of education and courses on script writing and film making, can a big budget film like this one be so bad? It was only because we watched in it Gold Class, in comfortable seats and with food service, that we didn't walk out.Īfter about fifteen minutes my partner leaned over to me and asked when anything was going to happen (in the movie that is). Christoph Waltz and Sam Jackson remain two of the most over-exposed stars in Hollywood and, good as they are, they are running out of clever ways to play the same character over and over. After a great opening scene, there is the filmic equivalent of "dead air" for about 35 minutes and when the script does finally get in gear it stumbles and falls, subject to a wildly disjointed narrative and equally bizarre editing.Īlexander Skarsgård has been impressive in other films (a race driver, a superhero) and I think with different material and a different director he could have connected. That said, this one is not especially good.
I have no doubt that after I am gone, producers and writers will continue to be attracted to it and continue to "make their bones" by bending it to their unique style. In my lifetime I have seen well over a dozen versions, retellings and re-imaginings of the Tarzan story. It is no coincidence that, almost a century ago, when young Hollywood looked to find a franchise for its new "talkie" motion pictures, they turned to the Tarzan tale, and spawned a franchise so successful that it literally outlived the shelf life of its star. It is at the same time the ultimate Romance and the ultimate Action tale. The core Tarzan story is not only iconic, it speaks to something deep within us. Washington joins him despite being told that he might not make it. With Washington's help he escapes and sets out to rescue Jane by going across the jungle. When they arrive, a man named Rom, who works for Leopold, attacks their village and captures Tarzan and Jane. Clayton agrees and his wife insists that she accompany him because she misses Africa. He says that Leopold might be committing all sorts of atrocities to achieve his goal, like slavery. But an American, George Washington Williams, wants him to accept so he can accompany him. He is asked by Belgian King Leopold to go to Africa to see what he has done there to help the country. The Legend of Tarzan (2016) is considered one of the best Action,Adventure,Drama,Fantasy,Romance movie in India and around the world.įollowing his parents' death in Africa, John Clayton has been be raised by an ape, was known by the name Tarzan, but eventually left Africa and for his parents' home in England, along with the woman he fell in love with and married, Jane Porter. Saper,Christian Stevens,Christoph Waltz are the starring of this movie. The Legend of Tarzan (2016) is a English,Lingala,French movie.
