Mike Henry is a delicious specimen. Any Tarzan movie starring this hunk of a man is worth watching, even if just to marvel at that great physique. Together with that soothing voice, he is a gentle giant (similar to Clint Walker). When not dressed in his skimpy jungle attire, Tarzan is a distinguished gentleman. Either way, he is a sight for sore eyes! Mike Henry is also - to my knowledge - the only hairy-chested Tarzan. Oh, and those muscular legs!
But enough of Mike Henry for now. 'Tarzan and the Valley of Gold' is an action adventure that revolves around the legendary city of gold. When a young boy who knows the location of the city is kidnapped by the ruthless criminal Vinero, it is up to Tarzan and his animal compadres to save the boy - and the city.
More often than not Tarzan reminded me of James Bond. His antics were reminiscent of the secret agent, and at times Mike Henry even looked like Sean Connery from his 60's Bond movies. He was not the stereotypical jungle man as we've come to know Tarzan, and he had a wide knowledge of...well, almost everything!
'Tarzan and the Valley of Gold' is not always believable, but from an action adventure perspective, it was very entertaining. This is a good option for a family friendly movie night. Kids will love the animals and the call to adventure.
