Memorable, crazy movie
Good concept, poorly executed.
Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%
View MoreThe plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
View MoreTarzan II I would say is maybe the best looking of the direct-to- video sequels. I was pretty overwhelmed by the beautiful landscapes and how grand they were made. To shortly sum up my impression of the idea of making a so-called midquel: I think it was a great idea, because we did not see how Tarzan coped with his identity issues in the original. The scenes in Tarzan II which has that theme in its undivided focus work out brilliantly without any need for words. George Carlin's role as Zugor did make a good impression on me, because I was a little sceptical to begin with. He and Tarzan share some heartfelt moments together.My only direct criticism towards Tarzan II is that these three apes, Mama Gunda, Kago and Uto are given too much screen time for my taste. They could have made the same impact on Tarzan's life with fewer lines. Tarzan II is worth watching, and kids can enjoy the adventure and the comedy while adults may find it pleasant to see the heartfelt moments.
View MoreWell, I watched this movie 2 times in English and 1 time in Greek (my country) and I have to say I enjoyed all 3 times. I will start with it's flaws, from OK to its worst and then to its ups, from good to the best The villains are a bit bland while funny, but I can live with them. Zugor is not given enough back story, and the 3 ape kids are annoying. But by far the biggest flaw in the film is its ending, which was put in a position where it could not be anything drastic but not this. It just goes from nice action to happy family in 10 seconds. Now for its strengths, which are a lot. The voice acting is superb,terk,tarzan and kala are among the best stars (kerchak would be too but he is barely in the film.) The art style is nice too, and the deeper look into tarzan's childhood and him chilling and playing with tantor and terk is always fun to watch. The animation is superb, at the end we get the best musical number (in my opinion) from all 3 tarzan movies ( I cant believe i am calling tarzan and jane a tarzan film but I digress) with a really awesome scene of tarzan swinging and surfing; that can surpass the original tarzan. But in my opinion,its biggest strength is ... its songs. Finding my way is really nice and sad, son of man was the best from tarzan 1 and it gets a nice reprise, who am is amazing, but who am I reprise is just out of this world. It is not only accompanied by a great background animation, but its also a joy to hear 7 stars from me, I really enjoyed this 1.
View MoreDisney's "Tarzan II" is a fun family film to watch, and I must say that it is much, much better than "Tarzan and Jane." This sequel centers around Tarzan's childhood, and what he had to go through while seeking his real identity. All the lovely characters are back of course, with other new fun characters. The animation of this film was quite satisfying and the songs by Phil Collins were also lovely. I have to say, however, that this film is mostly for kids but it has some good laughs for adults though . Also, do not expect this sequel to be better than the original "Tarzan" but still, it is a good one compared to other sequels, and is worth watching.
View MoreThis was much better than I had originally anticipated. That's just the cold hard truth. This is the story of Tarzan as a young boy, with all of his young friends, having fun. This is a great movie for children, mostly those between the ages of about 5 and 12, who will enjoy it the most. And parents will like the story line too, it is a good thing to talk to your children about. What to do in the situation, and what NOT to do. It seems as though Disney is trying to put these movies out as fast as they can now, but I don't think this one was for the money. They did take time on this video to make sure it was WORTH buying, and believe me, it is. And if you want this title, you can find good, inexpensive ones at either HTTP://www.amazon.com ,or HTTP://www.ebay.com. Thats my story, and I'm sticking to it!! This was a good movie, and I gave it an 8 of 10.
