After all, there is one thing that can be said about Tarzan's New York Adventure and never let it be said that we failed to give praise where it was due. The picture is the story of an adventure Tarzan has in New York.

Tarzan out of his jungle makes for a slightly refreshing storyline which amuses in places. First of all he's in a suit, and secondly he brings Cheetah!

Silly "Crocodile Dundee" fish-out-of-water story is a welcome change of pace for the series. Tarzan, Jane and Cheetah go to New York to find the kidnapped Boy. This was also the last appearance in the series by Maureen O'Sullivan as Jane, who is sorely missed in the subsequent films.
