Review of The Legend of Tarzan (2016) by Kara A — 18 Jul 2016
Don't make the mistake that I almost made!! GO SEE THIS MOVIE!!! My friend and I were trying to decide on a movie on a kind of the spur of the moment thing. We read the user reviews on Ghostbusters and decided against it.
Then I mentioned that a co-worker at work was raving about the Tarzan movie-which wasn't on my list to see. We read some of the reviews here on Metacritic, and the majority were favorable-the user reviews.
We figured it would be an OK movie, but in actuality were totally blown away. What an amazing movie, the full scope of the movie was incredible-storyline, plot, acting, action, and most of all the cinematography!! This is not the Tarzan movies that you grew up with!! This is the coming of age Tarzan movie that is finally deserving of the big screen and all it entails!! Don't make the mistake I almost made and let it slip by me.
My friend and I agreed this was our favorite movie of the summer so far! Whats up with the reviews from the Critics on Metacritic??-shame on you!! I am sure many of you have been mislead before by the critics.
Well don't let it happen here, believe me take my word for it you won't be sorry! The only thing in the movie that was a little out of kilter seemed to be Samuel L. Jackson. That said I love him and in the end I was glad that he was in the movie, as he provided some light heartedness to the movie and some needed comedic moments.
I won't hesitate buying this movie when it comes out on DVD as I want to watch it over and over-still you need to see it on the big screen to do it justice, as again the cinematography is over the top!
