Well the story lines may be very predictable but you just can't beat a late night movie with Johnny Weissmuller, the five time Olympic gold medal winner playing in his recurring role of Tarzan. In this film the civilized city dweller Jane (played by Brenda Joyce) befriends a couple of so called archeologists who want Tarzan to take them to the fantasy world inhabited by the Amazon woman deep in the jungle.
When Tarzan refuses to be their guide and take these suspicious characters deep into the Amazon jungle, Boy (Johnny Sheffield) agrees to substitute himself as their jungle guide and direct them to the hidden fortress where the Amazon woman live and seem to thrive without men.
It doesn't take long for these greedy archeologists to show their true reasons for wanting to find the Amazon women's fortress, and that reason is for the treasures that the Amazon woman possess.
So the film contains family values, greedy treasure hunters, good looking Amazon woman, Tarzan to the rescue, and of course Cheetah the chimpanzee getting into his usual mischief. It is another very good action/adventure film for all the Tarzan fans out there.
I give it a solid 7 out of 10 rating some 73 years after the films original release date.
