Scanialara You won't be disappointed!

Cubussoli Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Gurlyndrobb While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

pensman Weissmuller made a dozen Tarzan films over sixteen years. Tarzan's Secret Treasure is just about in the middle of that run, and Weissmuller is a bit older and "thicker" but still has the muscular look of Tarzan. I always liked the Tarzan films when I was young and regretted that Weissmuller never had the opportunity to become John Clayton, Lord Greystoke, but remained a monosyllabic Tarzan. I had read all of Burroughs' books and believe only John Carter and David Yates' The Legend of Tarzan capture Burroughs' characters.Regardless, Tarzan's Secret Treasure is an enjoyable Tarzan entry even though there is little new here; however, the rescue of Jane and boy and the fight with crocodiles is worth it at the film's end. Good film to kick back with on a winter weekend or rainy weekend and sofa down with popcorn and just go along for the fun.

gorf Even though it recycles some footage from the earlier movies, Tarzan's Secret Treasure is one of the best of the Weissmuller Tarzan movies. It's exciting and entertaining from start to finish, funny, romantic and even heartwarming.The big action scene at the end, where Tarzan defeats the cruel natives and greedy white men by capsizing their boats is one of the most exciting action scenes I've seen in a movie, old or new. Watching Tarzan dodge spears under water made my heart race faster. The part where Tarzan's friends use a tree to catapult Cheeta from one part of the mountain to the other in order to save Tarzan is clever. And one of the best things about the movie is the funny Irish character called O'Doul. The movie wouldn't be the same without him.The Tarzan movies really improved under the production code. The racist content is toned way down (Boy even befriends a black boy), and there's no unnecessary sex or gruesome violence like in the crude Tarzan The Ape Man or the overrated Tarzan And His Mate.I watched it with my daughter and my mother last week, and they loved it too. I wish they made more movies like this today, action/adventure movies for the whole family. It's a good thing that the old Tarzan movies are available on DVD.

wes-connors Curly-haired Johnny Sheffield (as Boy) and chimp "Cheeta" are the main attractions in this fifth MGM "Tarzan" adventure. Beautiful jungle mate Maureen O'Sullivan (as Jane), who wanted to leave the film series after "Tarzan Finds a Son!" (1939), still tends the tree-house. The plot gets going when a swimming Sheffield finds gold in the jungle king's pool. Greedy white people and spear-chucking natives threaten young Sheffield, bringing Johnny Weissmuller (as Tarzan) into action. Whisky-soaked Barry Fitzgerald (as O'Doul) swings ahead of the guest stars. Watch "Cheeta" get drunk on Mr. Fitzgerald's Irish blend. Yes, a drunken monkey can walk a straight line on his hands. This one's nicely photographed, but obviously heavy on borrowed plots, reaction shots and stock footage.***** Tarzan's Secret Treasure (12/1/41) Richard Thorpe ~ Johnny Weissmuller, Maureen O'Sullivan, Johnny Sheffield, Barry Fitzgerald

PIMannix Well-paced and -produced jungle adventure with an heroic Weissmuller, a fetching O'Sullivan and a better-than-average supporting cast. I could have done without seeing the stock footage of Weissmuller battling that croc for the third time though. Not one of the best Tarzan adventures, but you could do a lot worse.
