Not ERBs Tarzan,
23 April 2023
I rate this higher than I should have because they did an ok job with Tarzan's childhood. Obviously they didn't read the books, yeas children Tarzan is based on a series of books by Edgar Rice Burroughs, and yes the books Would be considered racist by todays standards. But these novels are over 100 years old and are products of their time and I am not defending the racism.

Only Greystroke has come close to representing the vision ERB gave us. Jane for example is an American but from Charleston, South Carolina; she and her father become separated in the jungles of Africa and Tarzan saves her, Tarzan's friend is not even in this movie. It's sad that today's children are too lazy to read older books.
