Summary: 4 Stars
I was about to say that Tarzan 2 was the best Dinsey sequel out there but I can't really say that when Toy Story 2 exists. Plus the Alladin sequels weren't that bad either. In Tarzan 2, young Tarzan struggles to in keeping up with the Gorillas. He almost dies and his mother thinks he died. He gets ready to tell her otherwise when he overhears some say the mom is better off now without him. So he sets off on his own to figure out what he is and what species he belongs with. He meets a grumpy old gorilla who scares other creatures off by making them think he's some scary creature. Tarzan promises he won't tell everyone the creature is just an old gorilla if he helps him figure out what he is.
The result is a harmless, cute and charming film that won't make you forget the first one but will still entertain you. Plus it helps that Phil Collins is back doing the songs once again. His songs help enhance the film a lot as well. I think this one could've actually have been released in theatres it was so well done. I mean come on Disney does need to go back to releasing more traditional animated movies in theatres. But they also need to be more original with them. I mean this was good but there's way too many sequels these days. I mean a sequel to the Hunchback of Notre Dame ? What's next Sleeping Beauty 2: The Second Nap ? For one I wouldn't mind seeing them make movies based on their cartoon series. I mean who wouldn't want Gummi Bears to be brought back with a few movies by Disney ? Or how about another Ducktales movie ??
Movie Review: Arguably Disney's Best Video Sequel
Summary: 4 Stars
Tarzan II tells the story of young Tarzan. Remember that song "Son of Man" from the first film and how Tarzan grew up in it. Well this is what else takes place during that time.
And during that time, there is an accident in which Kala is hurt and Tarzan is thought off as having died. Lucky for him he hasn't and he plans on returning to them. That is until he overhears family members saying that Kala would probably be better without him- so Tarzan runs away...
I have to be honest, I pretty much hate the Disney straight to video/DVD sequels. The animation is terrible, the story is almost as bad and the songs are uninspired. Then in 2004, Disney released The Lion King 1/2, and it was a step in the right direction. Tarzan II continues that step.
The animation is almost as good as the original and the few songs here are excellent. There is a newer, much shorter, version of "Son of Man", and the savior of this movie is the song "Who Am I?". The story became a little weak after the first 20 minutes but it was quite acceptable.
The DVD has Disney fastplay, games, a featurette and the music video for "Who Am I" performed by the amazing young singer Tiffany Evans. The music video is the true highlight of the DVD and I look forward to hearing more from Tiffany Evans in the future- remember her name!
Tarzan II- Arguably Disney's Best Video Sequel.
Movie Review: Will Disney ever stop making sequles out of their films
Summary: 4 Stars
Tarzan returns in Tarzan II, or at least young Tarzan does in this film, and Glenmn Close and Lance Henriksen return as Tarzan's ape parents, this is the first time that Lance Henriksen has voiced Kerchak in the film, and since Disney has this with Tarzan still as a child, they figured to bring back Kerchak. But the rest of the cast are newcomers to the Tarzan series, even if they are not newcomers to film. In the openning of the film, Tarzan (Harrison Chad) feels that he is responible for falling off a cliff, after he and his frends Terk (Brenda Grate) and Tantor (Harrison Fahn) when he he pratices becoming an ape, and having a monster named Zugor (George Carlin) and just telling scary stories, and when his Mom Kala (Glenn Close) thinks that Tarzan is dead, after he falls off a cliff, but really Tarzan is still living. Tarzan returns unexectly, but nobody knows he is around, and runs away from home when the other Apes thinks Kala is better off without, and he finds himself at the mountain that supposly that Zugor lives at. While I like this film, the movie is short, it clocks in at 71 minutes, but I am starting to think that Disney should start to move on from doing just Winnie the Pooh movies or sequels, I mean is this the same company that prouced animated movies that I grow up with, or discovered later on like Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, and the Lion King?
