Our opinion:. good

L legend of Tarzan has a very promising start. The action takes place in the late nineteenth century in Congo, an African country whose land is responsible for explicitly clarify the film, the colonial powers were distributed. It is a sequence reminiscent by its dynamism and plasticity opening Raiders of the Lost Ark , but here who leads the expedition is not the adventurous charismatic immortalized by Harrison Ford, but a nasty, violent and ambitious character which represents the interests of Leopold II, the Belgian king who amassed a huge personal fortune exploiting Congolese natural resources without any itching. The slave evil that ease travels through the African jungle with impeccable suit light colors and a Christian rosary using ocurrentemente as a lethal weapon is Christoph Waltz, an actor who after shining in Inglourious Basterds as a military ruthless Nazi seems doomed to such roles.

David Yates, director of the last four installments of the successful film franchise of Harry Potter , handles very well the prestressing the confrontation between a group of visibly frightened invaders and the natives, threatening, covered with ashes and ready to defend their territory warriors. Finished that first fight, where gunpowder is imposed on the sagacity and courage, who arrives to mediate in the conflict is the very Ape Man, raised in the jungle, but already re-socializing on the mighty British Empire and a couple with a woman as beautiful as take up arms (Australian Margot Robbie, who composes a Jane as seductive as temperamental). With them will travel to Africa to put things in place an emissary of the US government.

A series of Flashback synthesizes the past of this vigilante Tarzan, ecologist and carved body, without many nuances embodied by the Swedish Alexander Skarsgård. Repeat a familiar story ad nauseum and end up bogged down for a while a story that moved promised more. When bad history thrown kidnap Jane, the film begins to support the partnership between Tarzan and the American official, played with the solvency of Samuel L. Jackson always knows perfectly well that the nation it serves he has not been with the natives of their own much more benevolent than Leopold II fiend territory. Jackson brings poise, humor and psychological depth, raises the Piné of an adventure movie abusing digital effects not entirely achieved, but maintains a good narrative rhythm, beyond those dense referrals to a past that could have summarized more . Even with these difficulties the script and with its load of sentimentality and political correctness, The Legend of Tarzan is effective as entertainment, the more obvious its goal.
