Diep in de Afrikaanse jungle geeft een gorillamoeder een achtergelaten baby de naam Tarzan en neemt hem aan als haar eigen zoon, ook al schuwt de leider, de zilverrug Kerchak, dit onbehaarde wonder. Tarzan groeit op met zijn bijdehante apevriendje Terk en zijn neurotische kameraad, de olifant Tantor. Zo ontwikkelt hij alle instincten van een dier en leert hij alles over de jungle. Maar als plotseling zijn soortgenoten verschijnen staan twee werelden op het punt een te worden. (Buena Vista International)

An emotional blockbuster. Despite a few rough spots in the form of the slower tempo in the second half, it still receives the highest rating. The childish clowning in the form of babbling monkeys doesn't bother me; on the contrary, they are a surprisingly good fit for the narrative style. And the scene of Tarzan's playfulness ending with his transition into adulthood is simple yet fascinating.

The 37th Disney Feature Film Similarly to how I was upset about the Disney version of Tinker Bel, I have to praise Tarzan. With all love and respect for Burroughs, Disney's Tarzan is a wonderful affair. It was a real challenge because for Tarzan to move like a man-animal, no living actor could do that. An animated film was therefore the ideal choice. They also came up with a different portrayal of the relationship within Tarzan's animal family with the mice, and even Jane was done well without having to be the classic damsel in distress, which I very much applaud. Overall, the animation is excellent, the songs are by Phil Collins, and the whole thing makes more sense than most of the adaptations we've seen since 1912. I'm quite looking forward to the whole direct-to-video trilogy.
