The Legend of Tarzan, 3 Stars

Alexander Skarsgard

I liked this movie (but it could have had less violence).

I grew up watching Johnny Weismuller (who apparently did 12 Tarzan films in the 1930's & 40's)*, so I'm a fan of the overall concept.  Alexander Skarsgard (whom I'm not familiar with) does an acceptable job in the lead role and Margot Robbie (About Time) is good as Jane. Samuel L. Jackson (the Marvel series) is very good providing some comic relief and Christoph Waltz (Spectre) is excellent as the dislikable villain.

The Computer Generated Imagery (CGI) is very well done and provides many animal scenes that support the legend. It was also enjoyable watching Tarzan swinging on the vines.
