Edgar Rice Burroughs' Tarzan and Jane

This reimagining of a classic story places Tarzan in modern-day London, giving it a distinctly different feel from the previous iterations. It's visually enjoyable, and there's a humorous edge to Tarzan's mischievous streak and his adjustment to London life that kids will like. It's also a plus that he's an undeterred justice warrior of his own kind, letting viewers see him stand up for what he believes to be right. Another plus? Jane isn't just along for the ride; she's as able and principled as he is.

Tarzan and Jane offers a slightly different take on the jungle dweller's story than other movies have shown, so families who have seen others can compare and contrast them. Also, because the episodes tell a compounding story and the animation is more realistic, it's meant for a slightly older audience.
