8 Movies From 2016 That Deserve A Second Chance
8. The Legend Of Tarzan
“The Legend Of Tarzan ends up being a garbled, clunky production,” claimed The Guardian, “that tries to please everyone and ends up pleasing no one.”
In the year of Gods Of Egypt, London Has Fallen and Batman V Superman, those words seem needlessly harsh about a movie that just wants to give the viewer a good time.
In the lead, Alexander Skarsgard acquits himself pretty well though Margot
Robbie as the damsel in distress who’s tougher than she looks (this is Harley
Quinn, after all) and Christoph Waltz as the villain do their best to match
him.
Okay, so Waltz is the villain in everything and yes, the movie could’ve been made at absolutely any time over the last thirty years, but the real question is: does it deliver as a popcorn movie should? Released a week after Independence Day: Resurgence, you bet it does.
