Pretty Good

Memorable, crazy movie

I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

Copyright 12 January 1943 by Principal Artists Productions. Presented by Sol Lesser. Released through RKO Radio Pictures, Inc. New York opening at the Palace: 4 February 1943. U.S. release: 20 January 1943. Australian release: 23 December 1943. 7,601 feet. 84½ minutes. (Copyright length: 76 minutes).SYNOPSIS: Tarzan makes war on the Nazis. A political allegory in which Zandra represents Britannia (she is even costumed accordingly - at least to some degree), and Tarzan, American isolationist non-involvement.NOTES: Producer Sol Lesser's 5th Tarzan feature - but his first for RKO release.COMMENT: This is another Tarzan and the Lost City - not as interesting as Tarzan and the Amazons owing to the more clichéd script and pasteboard characters, the less inventive direction, and a distinctly second-string support cast. Nonetheless, despite its dated subject matter, it is still frequently aired on TV. There's more than enough action to compensate for the over-use of stock footage and other cost-cutting infelicities. What's more, Frances Gifford makes a most attractive heroine, while Sheffield is still young enough to grab the viewer's indulgence and Weissmuller himself is both comparatively animated yet still reasonably athletic.However, the comic relief from Sig Rumann's harassed sergeant and Cheta's harassing chimpanzee grows more than a trifle wearisome. The straight material with its obviously allegorical plotting is presented with the same degree of sledgehammer subtlety.Yet despite routine direction, Poverty Row sets, amateurish special effects and less than slick production values, Tarzan Triumphs holds the interest. The climax in which Weissmuller taunts the Nazi before leading him to a gruesome death (even though not explicitly shown on camera) has a prolonged, psychologically violent intensity rare in the kiddies' matinee film.OTHER VIEWS: Jane is away in England, so Tarzan battles the Nazis. Quickie, low budget offering, though the last half of the film is rather more expansively produced than the first and the climax itself is moderately exciting. - John Howard Reid writing as Geoge Addison.

Tarzan Triumphs marks the Edgar Rice Burroughs character moving from the premier studio of Hollywood MGM, to the more economical RKO. The results certainly show in this film.In 1943 the eternal jungle man joins the fight against the Nazis when paratroopers descend on an isolated city called Palandria. What Rommel was doing wasting valuable troops over there, mystifies me, it certainly wasn't anywhere near the North African theater, but the Fuehrer must have had a plan.The Nazis of course behave in their usual brutal manner and that's enough to bring Tarzan to the aid of the occupied city. Especially since Frances Gifford makes it a personal request. With Jane gone to aid the Allied cause I guess Tarzan's feeling a little antsy.It's real dated World War II propaganda, but Tarzan Triumphs is still a lot of fun.

When I think of Tarzan films, I think of this one - Cheetah's seminal scene at the end is one of my all-time favourite movie moments. This is, in my opinion the best of the Tarzan genre and I rate it a "10". I may be a bit biased having grown up watching these on TV, then going down the woods with my mates to build dens, climb trees and throw spears at anything that moved, but all the classic formulaic events of a Tarzan masterpiece are here. The big man himself, the jungle, dangerous animals ... throw in a bunch of Nazis for Tarzan to deal with too and how could it be anything but great ? Cheetah gives the performance of his life - he will have you rolling in the aisles with his antics near the end.If you haven't seen it and it comes on TV, give it a go ... sit back, suspend your disbelief, accept it wasn't made yesterday and take the special effects at face value ... and simply enjoy ...Superb.... now, where's my spear ?

Tarzan Triumphs is one of the best of the series. Part of the credit goes to its cast. Boris Karloff to put part of a gangster's brain into Stanley Ridges head in Black Friday in 1940, three years before he starred in this killer Tarzan entry as a classically dastardly Nazi. Francis Gifford (as Zandra) is a genuine babe. Wow! And of course, Johnny Weissmuller is your perfect Tarzan. However, in a brilliant bit of casting, it must be noted that the real star of this epic is ... Cheetah as Cheetah. Thank God, they didn't use Ray Corrigan and his fabled gorilla suit!Heretofore unbeknown to most of us, it's quite apparent from seeing Tarzan Triumphs that Cheetah really has an axe to grind against the evil Nazi's, who invade central Africa and take over Zandra-ville. When Cheetah gets word of this, he goes ... ape! Tarzan unwisely gets himself captured. Brilliant! Ungowa, indeed! This leaves one one man, er, monkey for the job of saving not only Tarzan, but Zandra, her entire town and, for that matter, the whole of central Africa: you got it...Cheetah.In reality, this film gives us all sorts of talents we didn't know Cheetah possessed prior to this film. For instance, who know that Cheetah was deadly with a Browning water-cooled machine gun? I didn't. Deciding to take matters into his own little hands, Cheetah blows up a Nazi machine gun next or two atop a tower in town. Then he goes to work. Geez, in a matter of a couple minutes, he kills thousands of Nazis. Who knows, maybe tens of thousands? That darned monkey killed millions of Nazi's and what was his reward? The Congressional Medal of Honor? No. The Silver Star? Uh-uh. Zandra? Sorry, even though he was dumb enough to get captured, Tarzan got her. No, Cheetah didn't get diddley squat. Not even a ding-dang banana. Where were the Oscar voters back then? To show his frustration (probably at not getting babacious Zandra), he did a couple back flips, everyone laughed - and the movie ended. By all means, don't miss Cheetah, star of Tarzan Triumphs...oh yeah, and Johnny Weissmuller and Francis Gifford (yee ha!).
