Take Me to Tarzana

Take Me To Tarzana combines the relatable day-in-day-out corporate drudgery of Office Space with the shenanigans of Workaholics set in a high stakes scheme-gone-wild plot reminiscent of The Big Lebowski. The elements mix well for a hilarious romp around LA while weaving an important narrative centering on current fears of workplace harassment and Big Tech spying on (and monetizing) our deepest secrets. This is the Millennial answer to the impending midlife life crisis that is office place malaise and having our most personal data exposed all over the web. Come for the prescient story on the corruption of big data, stay for the psychedelics-fueled trip with a monkey in a jungle mansion.

The entire cast is very solid, but Jonathan Bennett especially knocks his comedic performance out of the park, which pairs well with Owen Harn's Tarzan-themed techno villain. Chris Coppola is perfectly sleazy, Bob Wiltfong shows up to crush your soul and make you laugh out loud all at once, and Maria Conchita Alonso even sneaks in for some hilarious guest work with Emanuel Hernandez as her son in the funniest liquor-store-operating duo this side of Hollywood. Take Me to Tarzana is well-crafted indie production storytelling at its finest. Well worth the price of admission.

This is the story of a man who works in a drug company. One day by chance he finds out that his boss is spying on the women in the office. He informs his female co-worker about the issue and they try to find out what his boss is up to. The story is well-written. I see many different locations in the movie. I liked the movements of the camera. I didn't hear anything special about the sound effect and background music, but they were ok. I saw an amazing acting crew. Andrew Creer, Jonathan Bennett, and Samantha Robinson were awesome. I am pretty sure we will hear from Jonathan Bennett in the comedy genre more. He reminded me of Jim Carrey. I recommend this movie for comedy genre fans.

Loved this movie, if you want to spend a night laughing for a change after the last year, watch this one! It is just funny, great script, all the actors hit out of the park and it is a first time micro budget flick. Gotta support these small producers who put it on the line....this one is very deserving our hard earned $$$$

Lots of great laughs and antics!!! Also, superb acting with comedic ability! If you have Amazon Prime, it's defintley worth the watch! Hope we see more from the writer/director soon!

I saw this film at the Valley Film Fest back in November and it definitely punches above its weight. The cast deliveries some truly memorable performances. The premise revolves around a corporation mining personal data and building profiles and selling them to the highest bidder. And oh yea, the CEO of the company is some jacked Tarzan wannabe guy in a loin cloth. The movie had me laughing out loud multiple times; a feat that is not easy to do. I feel like most modern comedies these days lack those truly memorable scenes, but I've been finding myself telling my coworkers to "BE SOMEBODY" way too much. They don't know what I'm talking about because they haven't seen the movie yet, but once they do they'll see how cool I was for being the first to quote the movie.

So what are you waiting for? Go watch this movie and BE SOMEBODY. BE SOMEBODY. BE SOMEBODY.
