David McK (3372 KP) rated The Legend of Tarzan (2016) in Movies
Oct 16, 2022
Instead of the 'usual' Tarzan origin tale, or even of his time in the jungle, this actually is set when he has returned to England and taken up the mantle of Lord Greystoke.
That is, before circumstances lead him to travelling back to the Congo, in the company of Jane (With plenty of flashbacks showing how they first met) and of the American George Williams (played by Samuel L. Jackson), who has his own motives for wanting to visit the Congo.
Yes, I'm well aware of the questionably problematic nature of the Tarzan tale.
it was written over a hundred years ago (exactly 120 as of me writing this, to be precise), however.
The movie does - to its credit - at least try to address some of those concerns.
