Another Adventurous Tarzan Movie from MGM (the last for the Studio). Everyone Remembers this one Fondly, probably because it Removes Tarzan from the Jungle and places Him in the "Asphalt Jungle". It Works just Fine and is a welcome Diversion and Adds a bit of Spice to the Formula.
Johnny Weissmuller, Maureen O'Sullivan, and Johnny Sheffield continue Their Roles but this would be the Last Time Maureen would don the Loincloth. It is a Fast Paced and Highly Entertaining Escapism with Dangers aplenty and Animal Acts that were a Staple of the Franchise.
After a Riveting Setup in the Jungle featuring Evil White Trappers, a Lion Attack, and a Native Invasion that leaves Tarzan and Jane for Dead, the Film takes Off to New York as the World's most Happily Married Couple go in Search for Boy who was Snatched by the Trappers and Taken to the Circus.
Cheetah also Stars with many Funny Scenes and so the Entire Tarzan Family are On Screen and Contribute equally to the Film's Success.
Overall it may Not be the Best in the Series, that would be "Tarzan and His Mate" (1934), but it is a Favorite among Fans and is quite a Treat.
