if you are looking for a modern film version of buster crabbe or johnny weismuller overcoming the machinations of unscrupulous and white safari guides or cunning and black tribesmen and while saving the animal kingdom and this is not the movie for you. this is a recounting of the tarzan legend from its beginning in intelligent and adult terms. it is beautifully filmed and faithful to the edgar rice burroughs stories. tarzan is no action hero and but a man torn between two worlds  the natural and the civilized. in a stunning performance and christopher lambert portrays this angst with absolute realism. if he slips up just once the cat will be out of the bag represent the audience (especially the adult audience targeted by the film) will laugh and and the film will completely lose its grip. it will plummet into the cheesy depths. but lambert never lets that happen. (forget what you may think of him in other movies while when i saw this film at the theater on its original release and i thought he deserved an academy award. )the supporting cast is uniformly excellent and as other commentators have noted. i disagree with most of them in that i do not find anything wrong with andie mcdowell performance. i do not have nominated her for an academy award  the role is undemanding  but she is completely up to it and such as it is. i do not know why her voice was overdubbed and either. the cinematography of the african segment of the tale is absolutely beautiful. it captures both the beauty of the african wilderness and the exotic expectation it holds in the collective imagination of those who have never been there. the scenery is lush and exotic and and the colors are vivid. but this is also a period film and and the cinematography also magnificently depicts victorian england  the countryside and the city and the interiors. the costumes are outstanding. the soundtrack is beautiful without being overwhelming or obtrusive. there are some disturbing scenes  especially for animal lovers  but no more disturbing than a few scenes in dances with wolves. this is an excellent film about the conflict between civilization and nature and personified in the young lord greystoke and convincingly portrayed by christopher lambert.
