Amazon.co.uk Review
Whereas the original Tarzan tells the story of a man raised by gorillas who learns to bring together the human and animal worlds, Tarzan 2 is a prequel, of sorts, focusing on a chapter from Tarzan’s childhood where he realizes he is not an ape and sets out to discover his true identity. The young misfit runs away from his loving mother, Kala (voiced by Glenn Close), and wanders up the Dark Mountain to come face to face with the monstrous Zugor. But all is not serious in this 72-minute boondoggle; there is Disney’s usual foray into frivolity by way of a few wisecracking sidekicks--a couple of gorilla brothers named Uto and Kago, and their nettlesome Mama Gunda (voiced by Estelle Harris, a laudable choice). Despite the star-studded voice cast, there is a sense of re-tread ground here, and the story (loosely based on Edgar Rice Burroughs’ distinctive tale) shows signs of formulaic Disney. Nonetheless, Phil Collins’ trio of original songs livens the pace to make the effort a short-lived smile. (Ages 6 to 14) --Lynn Gibson, Amazon.com

Synopsis
Disney brings several familiar characters back to life for a series of new adventures in this animated sequel to the 1999 film TARZAN. Worried that his mere existence is putting his family in danger, Tarzan leaves home in an attempt to spare them any more trouble. But through his encounters with the notorious Zugor, Tantor, and Terk, Tarzan realizes that the most important thing of all is family. Will he end up right back where he started...TARZAN II features the voices of Glenn Close, Brad Garrett, and George Carlin, with new music by Phil Collins.
