This too was a good Tarzan movie. Jane was succeeded this time by Brenda Joyce who (if I'm not mistaken) didn't become very familiar with this role. Too bad, because she wasn't bad.

I thought the many swimming scenes were cool, especially when all kinds of people jumped off the rocks. Despite Weismuller's decline, I didn't think this was a bad film, so I give it a 3.5.
