I believe you have described “George of the Jungle”

The late 19th/early 20th Century was still fascinated with Africa as a dramatic literary device and, unfortunately, it was a fascination of “how can we put our White Colonizer Entitlement on this” which begat Tarzan and a host of imitators in Pulps and Comics. In 2016 when the last Tarzan film came out, a friend…

Joe Camel

Hey, I did the same thing once (shaved half my beard off)! It was actually work-related for my... job as a software engineer. (Yes, really.)

You are not alone. It had some really great action scenes, but the rest was mostly macho bullshit or saccharine cliches. Basically exactly how I’ve always felt about the original.
