Tarzan : The legend starts here
review by
ANIZ FILMVALA
*****
German Director Reinhard Klooss latest adaptation of Edgar
Rice Burroughs Tarzan tale is a simple and technical marvel of modern animation,
truly a visual delight for 100 minutes.
Basic story of Tarzan voice of Kellan Lutz [son of Alice
Greystoke and John Greystoke voice of Jaime Ray Newman and Mark Deklin] is left
stranded in African jungles after his parents were perished in a crusade of
preserving the nature from trepidation of energy industry.
Raised by a gorilla Kala Tarzan’s habitat becomes the jungle
and he grow up’s with the nature and animals around to protect him.
Almost a decade into a jungle life, Tarzan comes across gorgeous
and beautiful Jane Porter voice of Spencer Locke, his first contact with a
human gives him acuity to communicate and identify who he is.
As Jane revisit the jungle with industrialist William
Clayton voice of Joe Cappelletti after some years her relationship with Tarzan
is regenerated and blossoms.
But Joe is in search for the energy mines which Tarzan’s
father had explored years back.
Next loads of action and thrill as who will save the jungle
from Joe’s menacing intentions to acquire the mine.
Tarzan fans have little to celebrate as the animation gives
a miss to the macho image of his six packs and muscle as what Tarzan is about.
But Kids just sit back and enjoy your vacation with this age Tarzan, caz’s its made
for you.
