Wonderful and beautiful animation, enlightening story... typical Disney.

Rating: 9/10 (13 August 1999)

Now being an employee of the Disneyland Resort, I might be a little bias. But recently, with flops as the Hunchback of Notre Dame and Hercules (which I throughly detested) after some hits like The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, and the Lion King... it's nice to see Disney finally bringing itself up with Mulan and Tarzan.
The animation, like that of Mulan, is just spectacular. Though more computer animation is being used, it's getting really hard to tell what is hand-drawn and computer generated now. The characters are refreshing, but the art is what did it for me. I had the privilege of seeing the movie with a group of those who worked on the movie's animation and I could not stop praising their accomplishment. The three years of work put into Tarzan really showed by the product that was released... it was a complete joy to watch. I hope that the same effort that was put into Tarzan will be reflected in Fantasia 2000, Atlantis, and Kingdom of the Sun.
