9/22/2023 0 Comments Watch the legend of tarzan 2016Still, it might leave you scratching your head with a few questions of your own, like: where does Greystoke buy his shaving razors in the wilds? And, more importantly, which jungle gym does he visit to work on those freakishly sculpted and very twenty-first-century abs? (Not that fans of Skarsgård will worry too much about that.)ĭirected by ‘Harry Potter’ stalwart David Yates, this ‘Tarzan’ tries hard to be more than a creaky adventure story. The film plays as an old-school historical action-adventure, with lots of animal attacks and jungle chases and plenty of distracting flashbacks to answer questions about Tarzan’s complicated backstory. It’s the 1880s and Greystoke is back in the African Congo as a trade emissary for the British government and facing down colonial skullduggery. It imagines Viscount Greystoke (Alexander Skarsgård), best known as chest-beater Tarzan, all grown-up and civilised after a childhood in the jungle raised by apes. This high-energy, big-budget new spin on the old Tarzan story is fun to watch if you take it as throwaway kitsch.
