Philippa Hawker

The Age (Australia)

The villains are cardboard cutouts, and the good guys aren't much better; wildlife advocate Jane (voiced by Spencer Locke) is a disappointingly passive character.

Rated: 2.5/5

Amazingly, amid all the overlayered effects whoopla-hoopla, Tarzan still manages to find sufficient time and space to be very boring.

Rated: 2/5

Mark Kermode

Observer (UK)

While the motion-captured 3D CG has an uncanny photorealist quality, the wisdom of attempting to turn Tarzan into an Avatar-lite fantasy remains, at best, questionable.

Rated: 2/5

Cleaver Patterson

CineVue

Tarzan (brought alive with just the right degree of unsophisticated innocence by Lutz) and Jane, when together in the jungle, are just believable and appealing enough to make the viewer forget the film's weaker elements.

Rated: 3/5

Paula Fleri-Soler

Times of Malta

It all looks suitably nice and colorful and jungle. But is never spectacular in the sense that it takes your breath away, and the humans are a little bland and personality-free.

The Times of India

All in all, it's a slipshod rendering of a classic.

Rated: 2/5

ana luisa u Personajes planos y aburridos la animación es buena y lo oscuro que ve película lo único es sueño el humor es pésimo y protagonista esta. Meh es un 3.3 de 10 Rated 1.5/5 Stars • Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 12/15/23 Full Review StephenPaul C The greatest 01 hour: and 34 minutes ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/14/23 Full Review Cindy H first off let me say i think the rating is a bit harsh(33% currently) id give it no less than 50% but anyways! its a weird version of tarzan. ITS NOT A BAD MOVIE! but its not "good" either. i watched this with a 'whatever' mindset i honestly thought it would be worse but i was surprised the animation was pretty good(humans looked a bit wonky at times but overall its good). the story itself is tarzan but this meteor rock that has powers or something? its kind of hard to understand but the bad guys try to take it but tarzan protects it yadda yadda all that stuff. so the story is not the best but its not bad to where i got bored or anything like that. the pacing was pretty consistent too. however, disneys tarzan is way way WAY better. Rated 3/5 Stars • Rated 3 out of 5 stars 06/28/22 Full Review Audience Member Not a stinker, but certainly missing the heart and magic that is held by the 1999 version of this epic story. Rated 3/5 Stars • Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member This isn't worth the time. If you are going to watch Tarzan just watch the original. Rated 2/5 Stars • Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Absolutely horrible. Unable to watch this with my younger son because of the violence. Horrible animation and plot. Do not waste your time Rated 0.5/5 Stars • Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/22/19 Full Review Read all reviews
