‘The Legend of Tarzan’ Review Roundup: Critics Split Over Alexander Skarsgård and Margot Robbie’s Classic Epic

“The Legend of Tarzan” arrives in theaters this Friday but it seems that the David Yates-directed film is off to a wild start. Starring Alexander Skarsgård and Margot Robbie, the new and updated story of the Edgar Rice Burroughs-created character sees Tarzan return to his former home in the jungle after living in London for nearly a decade.
IndieWire’s David Ehrlich gave the film a D+, writing in his review, “By turning Tarzan into just another superhero, David Yates’ blockbuster origin story wastes one of literature’s great wild men.” He adds that “Tarzan is a monumental bore” and that Robbie’s talents are wasted. “As nice as it is that the character has been updated for the 21st Century, the way this film uses her is decidedly archaic.”
