The least that we can say is that feature is not the worst Tarzan adventure ever. Maybe not the best, but an interesting yarn. Let me explain why, in my own opinion. The "bad guys" Albert Dekker and Chuck Drake are not so bad guys after all, just greedy fellows in search of a multi million magic liquid which can ensure eternal youth...I hav seen meaner heavies in Tarzan films. And those natives who protect their paradise can, for some of them, also being seen as savages, bad guys of the movie. yes a good film debut for Lee Sholem.
