I think greystoke was one of the best movies I've seen in years.
One of its strengths was that It emphasised the struggle between
the animal and the man.  Tarzan was not reduced to the level
of a conan the barbarian.  The sets were beautiful, the
acting was superb.  Sections of the movie were very
funny and sections were heartbreaking.  This was
a cerebral and a visual movie.  It did not have as much
action as star wars, alien, conan or bladerunner, but that
was not its intent.  Don't go to this movie expecting
some entertaining alligator wrestling and savage butchering.
What there is is usuallly done by the civilized men.  If
you want a movie that will let you sit back and think:
"Now theres a great movie, like they made in the
old days." then go see Greystoke.
