Review Date:

Tarzan's Blu-ray release delivers a strong A/V presentation with nostalgic charm, despite minor video issues and a 5.0 audio mix.

Video: 66

Tarzan's 1080p/AVC-encoded video presentation impresses initially with vivid colors, sharpness, and precise detail but is marred by intermittent macroblocking, aliasing, and slight banding, especially noticeable in close-ups of the gorillas. Despite these minor visual flaws, the overall transfer remains fairly pristine and enjoyable.

Audio: 67

Tarzan’s DTS-HD Master Audio 5.0 mix delivers excellent clarity and dynamic range, with standout moments in Phil Collins' songs and sound effects, though the absence of an LFE channel slightly diminishes the impact during intense scenes.

Extra: 60

The Blu-ray of 'Tarzan' offers an extensive set of extras, including a thorough audio commentary, detailed behind-the-scenes featurettes on animation and character development, Phil Collins' music creation process, and a variety of music videos, albeit with no new content added beyond previous DVD releases.

Movie: 70

Disney's 'Tarzan' Blu-ray impresses with stunning, near-seamless hybrid animation and a memorable Phil Collins soundtrack, though the film's cookie-cutter characters and deviations from Burroughs' original plot detract slightly from its lasting appeal. Despite these flaws, it remains an energetic, visually impressive adventure.
