Octavi Marti

An odd and attractive adventure, with a notable ability to to fictionalize at the same time that it's concerned with historical reconstruction. [Full Review in Spanish]

The beauty with which John Alcott photographs the African natural landscapes and the extraordinary personality displayed by John Scott in the composition of the soundtrack that makes the film stay in the cinematic memory. [Full Review in Spanish]

For all its flaws, Greystoke is still better than the romanticized live-action versions of Tarzan that Hollywood has produced.

As long as they stay in the jungle, this Tarzan may be one of the very best versions of the character you're likely to see.
