Movie Reviews of Tarzan II
Movie Review: Why?
Summary: 3 Stars
Y call this Tarzan 2? Its the THIRD movie. Part two is called TARZAN & JANE.Movie Review: Another pointless Disney midquel
Summary: 2 Stars
All of Disneys direct to video follow ups are really starting to get tiresome. They are fast cheap ways to profit off the original and have no reason to excist. Tarzan 2 is no exception. The original Tarzan is a Disney classic. A great story of action, love, and trying to find your place in the world. Afterwords came the Legend of Tarzan series. Which featured inferior animation but decent stories. Tarzan 2 does surprise me by being the first direct to video sequel to have animation on par with the original. Breaking a long sucky tradition of sequels with inferior animation. Unfortunitly the story is below the quality of even most of the television episodes. It takes place sometime in the middle of the original sometime during the "Son of Man" song. It involves Tarzan feeling he is a danger to his family and runing away to find out what he is. The story has no strong villian, no real threats, and a cheesy as hell conflict resolution. All the elements of a kids movie that everyone over puberty will have a problem with. A real shame considering the orginal could be enjoyed equally by kids and adults. It has its cute momments and is better then many of Disneys very poor direct to video but thats not saying much going against garbage like The Lion King 1 1/2. The DVD has superb picture and sound. Why Disney denies DTS on the originls but gives it to its inferior sequels I don't know. An Ok little movie for the kids but Tarzan 2 leaves alot to be desired from adult fans of the original.Movie Review: Not up to par...
Summary: 2 Stars
I'm surprised a good majority of people enjoy this film. Personally, I thought it was horrible.
The story was kinda so-so. I guess it's about Tarzan learning who he really is and that, although he is different from the other apes, his family still needs him....no matter what. Not a bad story over-all....if it had been played out a little nicer.
The characters aren't exactly what you'd call "endearing". I suppose you're made to believe they are, since we've all seen the first Tarzan film and loved it (and the characters).
I thought the animation for/on Tarzan himself was excellent; however, some of the others could have used some work.
In a nutshell, I hated it. About half-way into the movie I got up and left, leaving my younger sister to take the burden and watch it for me. She's twelve, and even she didn't like it! Although, maybe she was just kidding, as I saw her singing to the songs and cracking up at a few parts. This just goes to show that kids 4-12 will probably love it, but us older folks will turn our noses up at it.
Movie Review: Why the midquels, disney??? Why???
Summary: 1 Stars
First off, the animation was very nice. But pretty is as pretty does, right? The story is pretty weak and fairly uninteresting, like most disney DTVs today. It's about Tarzan's boyhood. Like I said, it's not too bad, but it's not very original either.
This is one of disney's first so called "midquels" that later spawned nightmares Bambi 2 and Fox and the Hound 2. I know that some don't feel that way (especially about Bambi 2 apparently), but, if you ever ask those that do like them, the answer is usually that they would have preferred a real sequel. What's with that, eh? Anyway, I'd rent this, there is too much of a chance that you might not like it.
Movie Review: STOP STOP 1 Stars
disney stop making direct to video sequels! you virtually made a sequel to everything done! and this is not just disney, this also applies to hollywood in general, with after 100 years, have run out of ideas for good. no wonder that the box office is in a 15 week slump (and will indefinitely be in a slump for decades to come) with sequelization of almost every film made over 10 years ago and remaking the rest. And commercials that use old 70s songs to sell yogurt and cars, that is the nail in the coffin!to find originality these days is almost as imposssible as reversing gravity. WELL SCREW YOU HOLLYWOOD!
