Rating:  - Keeping the Legend Alive
Tarzan Escapes begins with two of Jane's cousins entering the jungle to bring Jane back to civilization so they can inherit money left to her. When they find her, they see that life in the jungle is not as savage and horrible as they expected; the treehouse is very advanced in this film. There is hot and cold running water, a fireplace for cooking meat, and other luxuries. However, Jane agrees to help her family by returning despite how upset Tarzan becomes when he hears this news. He also begins ... Read More
Rating: - THIRD MOVIE IN THE SERIES
Ok..I should qualify by saying the third in the series for Johnny Weismuller. While this film uses a lof of stock footage from the two earlier films it still stands on its own as a strong and rather violent entry into the Tarzan series. Rita and Eric Parker, two of Jane's cousins hire a hunter to find Jane so they can convince her to leave the jungle and return home. Captain Fry, the Hunter, has other motivations...he wants to capture Tarzan and take him back to the states to put him on dispay ... Read More
Rating:  - Mean and lean entry in the Tarzan series
The Tarzan movies in the Weismuller series are like the Burroughs novels upon which they are based--the early works are impressive ,and as the series developed an air of routine set in .This follows on from the second of the Weismuller movies Tarzan and His Mate ,and while still enjoyable and tautly directed it is a lesser work than its predecessor .In fairness it should be noted that the work as we have it is not the movie as originally shot-preview audiences were reputedly upset by the violence ...

Rating:  - Johnny Weissmuller is the preeminent Tarzan
This is a tough and mean Tarzan movie. Johnny Weissmuller was the best of the loincloth-clad heroes and he gets you cheering in this one. It's good vs. evil all the way. Code of the Jungle. A favorite of mine, this excellent film is a real testament to the notion of "kill or be killed." This is a good hard-hitting action and adventure tale. It contains discriminating effects and ravishing photography. Good supporting cast. Great score. The villains once again meet their match in this realistic drama. ... Read More
Rating: - Fastpaced and violent
Tarzan Escapes! is the most actiondriven of all the MGM productions consisting O'Sullivan and Weissmüller as the rulers of the jungle. It also has its moments of intelligence and ethical challenges, as when Tarzan escapes a trap and is led to believe by the slimy Captain Fry that Jane has decided to leave him in the hands of fateand bad will of his antagonist, incarnated in the body of a greedy safari. Then Tarzan, stricken with grieve over is beloved Jane's alleged betrayal, sadly enters the cage ... Read More
