Review of The Legend of Tarzan (2016)

By Amy Nicholson (961) for MTV News (30) on 13 Jul 2016

As much as I enjoyed this bizarre, ambitious adventure and its careful popcorn kitsch, Tarzan’s story will always leave our ears ringing…

Review of The Legend of Tarzan (2016)

By Matt Goldberg (248) for Collider (1,032) on 12 Jul 2016

The Legend of Tarzan plays it so safe at every turn that it forgets that a daring adventure should be daring…

Review of The Legend of Tarzan (2016)

By Ed Whitfield (493) for The Ooh Tray (482) on 12 Jul 2016

A film with all the vitality and energy bled out. If only [Yates] had kept it swinging…

Review of The Legend of Tarzan (2016)

By Tom Glasson (221) for Concrete Playground (635) on 11 Jul 2016

A superhero movie with a social conscience that continually flits in and out of getting the balance right…

Review of The Legend of Tarzan (2016)

By James Kendrick (1,607) for Q Network Film Desk (1,607) on 11 Jul 2016

David Yates overdirects the film to the point that he gives us vertigo long before Tarzan grabs onto a single vine…

Review of The Legend of Tarzan (2016)

By Rosie Fletcher (98) for Digital Spy (1,161) on 10 Jul 2016

The Legend of Tarzan tries to be all things to all people but fails to do the one thing it really needs to: tell the story of Tarzan…

Review of The Legend of Tarzan (2016)

By Walter Chaw (1,360) for Film Freak Central (1,643) on 10 Jul 2016

You can find fault, and easily, with its prose, but when it's right, it's right in exactly the right way…

Review of The Legend of Tarzan (2016)

By John Serba (472) for MLive.com (475) on 10 Jul 2016

I found the film pleasantly old-fashioned as long as I squinted a bit, blurring the profligate modern special effects and focusing on its retro…

Review of The Legend of Tarzan (2016)

By Aine O'connor (240) for Sunday Independent (Ireland) (504) on 09 Jul 2016

This is the 49th Tarzan retelling and while it bears no resemblance to Johnny Weissmuller running in speeded up B&W, it doesn't quite get it…

Review of The Legend of Tarzan (2016)

By Charlotte O'sullivan (637) for London Evening Standard (2,015) on 09 Jul 2016

Jackson is the film's greatest asset. He's also its biggest problem. He's just too charismatic…

Review of The Legend of Tarzan (2016)

By Henry Fitzherbert (699) for Daily Express (UK) (2,141) on 09 Jul 2016

With low expectations, it's a solid enough adventure with some reasonable action set-pieces. Just don't expect to be shouting from the treetops…

Review of The Legend of Tarzan (2016)

By Matthew Toomey (680) for ABC Radio Brisbane (680) on 09 Jul 2016

In a season cluttered with big-budget blockbusters, The Legend of Tarzan doesn't stand out and is unlikely to leave an impression…

Review of The Legend of Tarzan (2016)

By Lawrence Toppman (1,654) for Charlotte Observer (1,670) on 08 Jul 2016

Director David Yates, who did the last four “Harry Potter” films, delivers both big thrills at the climax and small, spooky ones when Tarzan…

Review of The Legend of Tarzan (2016)

By Louise Keller (804) for Urban Cinefile (2,850) on 08 Jul 2016

Skarsgard's abs, a digitally inhabited jungle and the settings are the key elements of this interesting mix of superhero epic, adventure, creature…

Review of The Legend of Tarzan (2016)

By Diana Sánchez Uranga (27) for Cine Premiere (538) on 07 Jul 2016

It might not be the best version of the character, but it has enough action and thrills to make you have a good time. [Full review in Spanish]…

Review of The Legend of Tarzan (2016)

By Stephen Romei (236) for The Australian (781) on 07 Jul 2016

The Legend of Tarzan is a passable action adventure. I ended up thinking a lot about it afterwards, because I found it so odd…

Review of The Legend of Tarzan (2016)

By Frederic And Mary Ann Brussat (3,072) for Spirituality and Practice (3,072) on 07 Jul 2016

An adventure that mixes the magical with the real to touch on the ineffable graces of love and liberation…

Review of The Legend of Tarzan (2016)

By David Blaustein (150) for ABC News Radio (149) on 07 Jul 2016

The Legend of Tarzan needs to be a much better movie, considering there was virtually no one asking to see another film about a character that,…

Review of The Legend of Tarzan (2016)

By Tara Brady (805) for Irish Times (1,391) on 07 Jul 2016

A good deal poorer than Hugh Hudson's much- maligned 1984 reinvention, Greystoke: The Legend of Tarzan, Lord of the Apes…

Review of The Legend of Tarzan (2016)
