TARZAN'S REVENGE (1938) ¢ ¢

A notably tame Tarzan movie in which the lord of the jungle encounters some big-game hunters on the trail of a rare white crocodile. They never do find the white crocodile - one of several plot points that go unresolved - but Tarzan swings through the trees and fights (but does not kill) a lion, and he and a young woman traveling with the hunters go swimming together in an underwater scene that's a lot more discreet than the one in "Tarzan and His Mate". If you're looking to pass the time, this'll do, but the Weissmuller Tarzan films, the early ones from MGM, still hold up the best.
