Product Description
Legend of Tarzan, The (Special Edition) (DVD)
It has been years since the man once known as Tarzan (Skarsgård) left the jungles of Africa behind for a gentrified life as John Clayton III, Lord Greystoke, with his beloved wife, Jane (Robbie) at his side. Now, he has been invited back to the Congo to serve as a trade emissary of Parliament, unaware that he is a pawn in a deadly convergence of greed and revenge, masterminded by the Belgian, Captain Leon Rom (Waltz). But those behind the murderous plot have no idea what they are about to unleash.

- Reviewed in the United States on February 22, 2025Wonderful story, amazing cinematography! I loved everything about this movie. I tell you, Waltz makes me more Angry than other villains in this Genre, hands down! If you haven't seen Kraven yet, it's a must see! He animalistic traits are Awesome as well. We definitely need more movies like this. I'm OVER Zombies, Apocalyptic junk, and AI movies Stress me out to the core.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 29, 2024This is a wonderful story!!!! Cannot believe some reviewers didn't like it! Best one ever. As a wildlife biologist and conservationist I wholly appreciated the animal interactions even if just a story! Tarzan and Jane have a beautiful relationship with each other and the animals in the story. It is the way we wish all animals an people could appreciate each other.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 10, 2025I really enjoyed this movie
- Reviewed in the United States on November 1, 2016First things first - this was, for any adventure movie lover, a good adventure movie. It had fights, trains, vertiginous heights, lost tribes, cool shots of 1800s steamers, close encounters with wild beasts, a damsel in distress, the obligatory bad guy. For any firearm aficionado you can feast your eyes on m1889 Schmidt-Rubins, Maxim machine guns, Walker Colts, Turk Mausers, etc. There's lots of high action, killer scenes of Tarzan swinging through the jungle that are easily the best done scenes of any Tarzan movie extant.
For most Tarzan fans who have never really read a Tarzan story - it's a good Tarzan movie with most all the crucial elements you've come to expect except with the bonus of being minus the 'dumb Tarzan' thing that I never understood (although there is a reference made to that). Inaccurately, he is depicted as being able to speak to all the animals, they're all his friends, etc. Exactly as any fan of the movie Tarzan might expect. Except it never happened in the books.
For the Tarzan fans who have actually read some or all of the original novels there were a couple things I would have changed. Chiefly, Tarzan got his arse handed to him on too many occasions. I know it builds tension when the good guy gets knocked down a few times but finally stands victorious on the field of battle in the end, and that's fine. I don't wish to add any spoilers so I won't give any specific examples, but there were at least a couple of those fight scenes that, having read and reread the source material (or what I assume would be the source material - considering that this is Hollywood we're talking about that source material might be anything including their own highly inaccurate movies of the past) that Tarzan should have come out more victorious. This is, after all, the guy that vanquished the savage Kerchak as a teenager - the former king of Tarzan's ape tribe - with his bare hands and his father's hunting knife. I've never read a Tarzan story where he got his butt whooped so many times.
The Edgar Rice Burroughs fans, and I'm one of 'em, always tend to be highly critical of every detail that doesn't match up 1:1 to the original novels. But this is true of any fan of any written work that makes it into film. We always want to see those things we've imagined from the written descriptions leap to vivid life on the big screen But when they don't, or when Hollywood perverts them, well - we all know the saying: the book was better than the movie. I wonder when Hollywood will hear that phrase and take it to heart? I'm not willing to offer any spoilers for those who haven't seen the film, but there are definitely elements that were changed or left out that would certainly affect any possible sequels based on our favorite novels (Tarzan and the Jewels of Opar for one, and I would dearly love to see La brought to life as Disney did with Dejah Thoris, where Lynn Collins created a mesmerizing vision of ERB's Princess of Helium). To the true fan you will instantly miss the antagonistic relationship in this movie that Tarzan always had with the cat family, and you will note the absence of all the familiar ape words: Numa, Sabor, Tantor, Gimla, Paco, etc - all conspicuously missing. And while Tarzan only ever befriended the one lion, Jad Bal Ja, that I'm aware of, you might scoff when he stumbles unaware upon a group of lions feasting on a kill (that he never smelled beforehand by the way since all his heightened senses of hearing and smell and eye sight are also conspicuously missing) and instantly begins communing with one of them. If anyone is really interested in seeing a scene that perfectly depicts Tarzan's true relationship with Numa the Lion in gripping accuracy google Boris Valejo's cover for Tarzan the Magnificent - that piece of art is a perfect rendition of how Tarzan reacted to Numa.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 15, 2016I’ve read most of ERB books and couldn’t wait to see this movie but because of the awful reviews I didn’t see this at the movies. I’m actually surprised at the ridiculous reviews the critics gave - they missed the mark on this one. I’d throw a rotten tomato at them!
This movie isn’t perfect but it’s the closest rendition to ERB’s Tarzan – finally! Its overall portrayal was great. There were moments I thought “yeah right” – jumping off a cliff into the trees and the lengthy vine swings and of course the movie is a bit predictable but that’s Tarzan and any other superhero movie – good guy saves girl and kills bad guy!
Skarsgårds performance was excellent. His portrayal of Tarzan had heart and his ability to commune with nature was believable. He really captured the spirit of Tarzan. I thought he portrayed an accurate rendition of ERB’s civilized John Clayton a former wild man who managed to blend in to “civil society”. I liked the way the storyline starts where Clayton is living in England as the Earl of Greystoke and events remind Clayton of his home in the Congo. The flashbacks scenes were great and gave you enough to see his early years. I would love to see a Skarsgård ‘prequel’ from the early years of Tarzan and his dependence on his mother “great ape” to him becoming a civilized Earl of Greystoke - although not another “Greystoke”
The portrayal of the “great apes/ mangani” was the best rendition ever. In the First book, Tarzan of the Apes ERB describes them as “huge,” “fierce,” and “terrible.” “the most fearsome of these awe-inspiring progenitors of man.” He adds that they’re “a species closely allied to the gorilla, yet more intelligent.” The apes depicted in the movie were just that!
Jackson’s role was a little odd & unnecessary. His 21st century dialogue while comical and entertaining, I just felt his character did not quite fit in. Robbie’s performance was great as a very feisty adventurous Jane. Waltz, while an excellent actor, I thought his villainous presence weak, maybe I am tired of seeing the same kind of villain. Djimon Hounsou’s performance was powerful and quite moving.
Visually this movie is stunning with absolutely beautiful cinematography. I’m no expert on CGI but to me the animals looked real. I really loved the interaction of Tarzan and the animals and would like to have seen more of this. There is little to no foul language. I wouldn’t watch this with very young children the ape fight scenes would be quite frightening.
Go see the movie and enjoy it.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 2, 2024Wanted to add this to my collection, received it, placed it into my DVD player and it froze several times just during the previews. Asked for a replacement and within 2 days I received it. Checked it out and it's good all the way through. Very pleased. Thank you so much for the fast service.
