Tarzan

I really like this movie, especially Turk and that elephant. I was practically screaming at the screen '' Don't do it! Don't do it!'' The thing I would have preferred is more Turk and elephant screen time. They were only in about 3 scenes, and I wish they would have been in more. I also would have liked more happiness. This movie is so sad, it needs more happiness. Very sad movie, but very inventive. It was hilarious when the gorillas were raiding the camp! I like the way Clayton died. Very inventive and never before seen in a Disney film before! All in all, good movie. If you like jungle wildlife and romance, this is the movie for you.

Produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios, this animated film adaptation of Edgar R. Burroughs novel is already stunning with an eye-popping opening scene where the Rainforests of Congo has been terrorized by a ferocious rogue leopard named Sabor. The final resolution on how this movie ends is absolutely cheery. That's right; from beginning to end, I find "Tarzan" very enjoyable. The sheer craft of filmmaking on display here is simply astonishing, offering rich and satisfying execution for it's dynamic entertainment value. Three screenwriters have told the story written by twenty-two writers with heartfelt soul and remarkable editing by Gregory Perler. The sumptuous animation is as dynamic as the entertainment value. The animation is an amazing mixture of traditional hand-drawn 2D and computer-generated 3D. Most of the time, the animation moves with graceful fluidity at many different speeds that were used at the right time during each appropriate scene to sell the effective delivery, particularly when the movements are swift to sharply deliver the rousing action and the hilarious comedy. The well-utilized tone supports these elements as well. Did I mention that the movie has mesmerizing cinematography alongside the art direction and art style? Well, it most certainly does. The movie has a special "camera" technique to move forward, back, and to shoot every angle of the frame, especially for scenes with the vine-swinging and tree-surfing. These sweeping set-pieces make this film an immersive literal roller-coaster ride. As for the emotional value, it is touching with absolute sincerity. Bonnie Arnold (producer) with Kevin Lima and Chris Buck (directors) are the head of this enormous crew, and as far as direction goes, Kevin and Chris are responsible for this incredible technical achievement, and it shows how gifted these filmmakers are. However, I would not consider "Tarzan" a masterpiece of Disney animation, because there are some elements of the script that are redundant and corny involving piranhas in Africa and elephants enjoying peanuts (elephants don't eat peanuts; they are way to small for an elephants hunger pangs, peanuts are high in protein, and peanuts are a domesticated plant, not wild). Anyways, the major asset of the film is the vigorous soundtrack; this is the first animated film that does not use singing characters, instead, the movie uses original songs to tell the story with full-bodied results. Phil Collins wrote and sang the haunting songs. The beautifully lavish score by Mark Mancina is brilliant combination of a stirring orchestra and ethnic African instruments that includes lots of tribal percussion. The voice cast did a great job voicing the entertaining characters; Tony Goldwyn voices the main title character with deep and warm resonance. This main character is curious and fun, but when danger approaches, he deals with it with serious ambition. Glenn Close voices Kala with maternal precision. The complex relationship between Tarzan and Kala are so engaging to watch. Terk (Rosie O'Donnell) can be annoying at times because of her hammy melodrama. Wayne Knight is amusing as Tantor, a paranoid African forest elephant who eventually changed in the compelling third act. Kerchak (Lance Henriksen) is a formidable silverback gorilla. and Henriksen has the voice to match his size, strength, and attitude. Tarzan's company makes Kerchak hugely suspicious for good reason: gorillas are an endangered species with a misunderstood reputation, and the main antagonist of the film is on the hunt for these magnificent beasts. The main antagonist is Clayton (Brian Blessed), a hateful poacher with a hot-temper and no patience at all. In conclusion: Despite it's flaws (check in with your kids), "Tarzan" is a technically marvelous and sprightly animated diversion.
