On an expedition in the remote African jungle, John Greystoke and his wife are killed in a helicopter crash while investigating a mysterious meteorite site. Only their young son J.J., who calls himself Tarzan, survives. A Gorilla discovers the boy in the wreckage and brings him up as one of her own. Quickly discovering the rules of the jungle Tarzan lives as one with the apes he now calls his family. It is not until he comes into contact with another human being, the courageous and beautiful young Jane Porter, that he starts to question his past and uncover the truth of his childhood. Tarzan and Jane come together and fight to save the jungle from Greystoke Energies new CEO William Clayton, who plans to destroy the land in his search for a new energy source. However when Clayton discovers that the true heir of Greystoke is still alive it is not just the jungle that is in danger. (eOne Films International)

A fairly standard adaptation of a legend, which believes that updating it to the present day will be more interesting. The 3D animation is tolerable, even for animals, but the fantasy elements are unnecessary, just an attempt to liven up a film that otherwise has no original ideas. Overall, a below-average animated film that relies on the assumption that people like family movies.
