Critic Reviews
When our eponymous hero deals with a hunter trapping jungle beasts, he doesn't reckon on his even more venal brother "Sikes" (Saul Gorse) who sets out to avenge his sibling and to secure himself some more precious cargo - and this time "Tarzan" is also on his list of targets, too. None of this was filmed anywhere near a jungle - maybe not even in a botanical hot house; but the efforts from the handsome Gordon Scott in the title role along with Eve Brant as "Jane" and the engaging youngster Rickie Sorensen ("Boy") go some way to compensating. It's a reasonably paced adventure with maybe a tad too much moralising in the script, but for a television movie it isn't terrible. If anyone has seen Leslie Banks in "The Most Dangerous Game" (1932) they might recognise certain aspects of that plot contributing to this watchable, but forgettable adventure.
