Tarzan is quite possibly the best Disney Cartoon ever. Now that is saying a lot!
Designed for children? Perhaps, but there is plenty in the movie for adults as well.
The casting is excellent, as the voices really match the characters personalities. The story flows very well form one scene to the next. There is enough going on to keep the viewer interested throughout. In Tarzan, Disney avoids their tendency to over play the "musical scenes."
The real beauty of the film comes in the strong emotion it captures. The film really draws the viewer in. One feels Tarzan's struggles to be accepted. The turns the movie takes makes the viewer sad, then mad, and at last high again.
I rate Tarzan as the 3rd best movie of 1999 (so far), behind The Matrix and and just behind October Sky.
