Audience Member This movie makes no sense! They should have shown more respect for the Tarzan franchise. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member This is a very basic Tarzan adventure. Buster Crabbe who also played Flash Gordon, may have been a good Flash Gordon but he plays Tarzan like a Caveman. This movie was edited from 12 serials. Only watch if you are a serial Tarzan fan and even then only for historical reasons. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Está lejos de ser como una de las clásicas películas de Tarzan protagonizadas por Johnny Weissmuller. Sin embargo, Tarzan the Fearless (1933) tiene todo lo que un simple y ordinario filme de aventuras de bajo presupuesto -aquellos de matinee- debe tener. Aquí Tarzan es interpretado por Buster Crabbe (quien también interpretara a Flash Gordon en muchas ocasiones), y el tipo no hace otra cosa más que dar vida a una especie de parodia del "Rey de la Jungla". Vamos, el Tarzan que el director Robert F. Hill nos presenta es poco más que un cromagnon con cerebro de neanderthal. Esta película forma parte de una serie de pequeños filmes de Tarzan (varios actores encarnaron al "hombre mono"), en donde hasta el famoso grito del héroe sonaba ridículo. Algo como un aullido, nada relacionado con el resonante grito cantor de Weissmuller.
