Derek Adams Time Out Jun 24, 2006
A lame sequel to Connor's earlier Edgar Rice Burroughs adaptation, The Land That Time Forgot, which was at least occasionally lively. Go to Full Review
Matt Brunson Film Frenzy Dec 2, 2025
2.5/4
Patrick Wayne is a dull lead, and the effects are even less polished than those in the previous film -- still, there's enough of interest to make it an entertaining and undemanding time-filler. Go to Full Review
Mike Massie Gone With The Twins Aug 30, 2020
6/10
The creature effects still resemble rubbery toys molded out of clay, with ignorance toward details of skin, bone, muscle, and realistic movement. Go to Full Review
Roger Gentry Los Angeles Free Press Oct 23, 2019
The film is not a classic, but following the story told by Tarzan's creator almost to the letter, no one can go far wrong for an entertaining afternoon. Go to Full Review

A 1970s childhood probably helps in appreciating the slightly shoddy charms of this unpretentious and cheery creature flick. Go to Full Review
