Odd, but enjoyable entry in the series, 2 April 2006
5/10
Author: moonspinner55 from redlands, ca

One of the better post-Johnny Weissmuller "Tarzan" films stars heavy-lidded Mike Henry in the lead. Henry, ex-football player making his third appearance as the Ape Man, is a decent actor, although he would probably be more comfortable cast as a shady gigolo seducing older women over champagne than playing Tarzan. Henry does have the proper physique for the role, and his modern appearance is used to his advantage. This Tarzan is given a 1960s spin: he's 007 in a loincloth! Tarzan searches for a lost child in the jungle, aided by a sexy female reporter. The entire movie is full of sweaty bodies, so it comes as something of a surprise when potential love-interest Alizia Gur isn't allowed to play around with anything but her camera! ** from ****
