Hearing Jane tells her story of Tarzan is interesting.Some scenes are pretty amusing, albeit unintentionally.Tarzan actually kidnaps Jane, which makes him unlikable.

The tagline " Unlike any other "Tarzan" you've ever seen!" doesn't fit, because it has doesn't feel like a Tarzan movie nor does it focus on Tarzan.I don't know whether that's good or bad." Awkward dialogue including Jane stating to Tarzan "I'm still a Virgin.There weren't any comical elements in the Tarzan stories.Little to absolutely no faith in the source material.It currently holds a 10 'rotten' rating on Rotten Tomatoes with an average of 2.4 out of 10 but lacks a critical consensus. Laughable performances, especially from Bo Derek. Hearing Jane tells her story of Tarzan is interesting.On the poster, you can see Bo Derek as Jane and not Miles O'Keeffe as Tarzan.The title feels more like a loose remake of the other Tarzan, the Ape Man movies, which makes it extremely confusing to tell which version of Tarzan, the Ape Man is which.Jane is for some weird reason kidnapped and she befriends Tarzan. Africa is abducted by the savage tribe, but Parker mistakenly thinks Tarzan kidnapped her and it fuels his desire to kill the ape man.
As they journey through the jungle, the expedition is unaware that members of an unfriendly tribe follow them. Later, Jane finds out that the "white ape" is actually a wild man named Tarzan. However, Jane declares Tarzan is a man, and she knows he did not want to hurt her. Hunter James Parker (Harris) takes his daughter, Jane (Derek) to find a legendary white ape.
