The Worst Film Ever

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

I really don't understand why so many people hate this movie.I've seen a lot of complaints about the animation. It's not Pixar, but so what? It's still very good. From the reviews you would think Tarzan was on the level of an old Playstation game. It's fluid and beautiful to look at. While it's not a very original story (Tarzan's origin has been told and retold a million times in movies), it's good enough for an adventure movie like this. It's touching, romantic and full of jungle action like the classic movies. It's not directly based on ERB's novels. It's more like a combination of the Disney and Weissmuller version.Usually, these kind of animated movies contain fart jokes or sexual innuendo. It was a nice surprise to see that Tarzan steered clear of such unfunny and idiotic stuff. The worst thing about the movie is that they used that Coldplay song in one of the scenes. Cliché!Maybe the problem is that some critics and people have been spoiled by Pixar and Disney. They expect every single animated movie to be like that. When a movie by a different company comes out, a movie that's just there to entertain, it's not good enough.Tarzan is just a fun and harmless movie for the whole family.

This is the most god-awful movie which completely ignores all original story-lines, then adds historically inaccurate events from Earth's early years and finally has terrible animation. I watched the first minute of this movie and immediately knew it would be a crap fest. The idea that a meteor crashed in to Africa which wiped out the dinosaurs then remained intact to form a giant mountain covered by mist, (face palm), I can't give this enough of a poor rating. It is a horribly directed, ill conceived, poorly written and incorrectly executed movie. The only saving grace is that my kids were amused for 90 minutes but the side effect is that their minds have been tainted by a movie which should have never been released.

Why this movie was made, I cannot fathom. The writer/director/producer took a pre-existing tale (Tarzan), infused it with direct and indirect references to other movies (Up/Avatar/Harry Potter, etc.), and created a boring movie that wanders in no particular direction. It's one of those movies that makes one ask, "Why didn't I go to Hollywood and become a screen writer? Obviously anyone can do it." Though I realize that's nonsense, I cannot understand how this movie made it to production.But hey, in the spirit of Mystery Science Theater 2000, it was fun to bond with my 9-year old as we lambasted its ridiculousness.

This is NOTHING like the novel! Not even close! The title of this animated movie could have easily been called "Jungle Boy", as that is how far off from the novel this story line was! The graphics were good, but the animator who drew the characters has NO CLUE how to draw a human body, or how to portray the human musculature! The legs and arms weren't even close to what a human body in perfect condition would look like! They weren't even close to what a human body would look like! (The apes looked pretty good though.) Of note, I would really like to see a Tarzan movie, using an actor who could realistically play a man who grew up in the jungle, who swung through the trees his entire life, who ran and swam with the animals of the jungle.A man who grew up under these conditions would have a physique like a "god"! The muscles would roll smoothly beneath the surface of the skin. The man would move smoothly, quietly, gracefully, like a wild animal! Dwayne Johnson would be as close to the perfect Tarzan as I could imagine! Somebody should call Dwayne for the next attempt, but PLEASE, follow the novel, and for those of us who are die-hard Tarzan fans since childhood, DO NOT STRAY FROM THE NOVEL!
