All the technical and production value aspects of the movie are up to the mark. The picturization of the songs is also praiseworthy. The music composed by Himesh Reshammia is quite good. Even with the comedy and the romance, the movie would have scored because the car's adventures themselves are enough to entertain the audience for its most of the part. The comedy by Amrish Puri, Rajpal Yadav and certain other characters provides required relief. Even the romantic angle between the teeny bopper pair is interesting and lovable with both of them having innocence on their faces.
The movie is quite engrossing and devoid of any type of boredom. Both Abbas-Mustan and the action director deserve a pat on their back for the magic created on the screen through this car. It can be watched any number of times for the adventures of the car. This is the thing which gives this movie a repeat value. The tricky movements of the car, teaching a lesson first to the opponents of the hero in the college and thereafter seeking revenge from the murderers of his father, are hilarious. The special effects associated with the car are just marvellous. As I have asserted in the paragraph above, the real hero of this movie is the special car itself which is said to have been created with a huge cost (much more than the money paid to the lead actors of the movie). After all the baddies are killed (one of them being the father of Ayesha Takia, the college-mate of Vatsal and his love-interest), Ajay's soul comes before his son and blesses him. After the car becomes new afresh and starts treading the roads, Ajay's soul gets into it, turning it into a wonder car (named as Tarzan) which is all set to inflict revenge upon his killers. He buys the scrap and renovates the car with a lot of toil and dedication, of course, with the help of the benevolent and kind-hearted Amrish Puri. One day he sees the car designed by his father in scrap condition. His son Vatsal Seth grows up with the hardships of life and becomes a mechanic in the garage of Amrish Puri while carrying on with his education simultaneously. Talented car designer, Ajay Devgan is murdered by some evil businessmen who drown him alongwith the car designed by him. The hero of this movie is virtually a car. And quite naturally, it contains a number of special effects too.
However this is the only movie made by them which has a supernatural tinge. They make Hollywood style thrillers by borrowing the plots from the Hollywood itself. Abbas-Mustan have tried to be the Alfred Hitchcock of Hindi cinema over the past two decades.
This is a movie enjoyable not only by the kids but the grown-ups also. This is a movie which I could not see in the theatre which I will always regret because the special effects are a treat to watch on the big screen. I have watched it a number of times and my children are also sailing in the same boat. This Sunday I watched Tarzon - The Wonder Car once again with my children. Abbas-Mustan often known for copying English films comes up with a remake of CHRISTINE but sadly humanizes the car too much and adds a mystery of Ajay's soul in the car which is too old fashioned The first half and all the college scenes are very badly handled, the leg scene of Ayesha and the car scene and all her skimpy outfits scenes are repulsive and actually don't go with what she says that she will never wear skimpy clothes, you know how much they lie? Anywayz the car taking revenge part is interesting though filmy and the murder of Mukesh Tiwari is nicely handled but the rest murders are badly handled and with the hamming of the villains it's even worse Actually the villains comes across as jokers esp Shakti, Sadashiv The handling of the past Ajay Devgan's scenes are too in your face filmy and clichéd Even the entire Pankaj Dheer scenes where he says he won't marry Ayesha to Vatsal and the entire climax is 80's style Direction is faulty Music is good Vatsal tries hard but fails to emote and comes across as struggling to hard Ayesha is good but irritates at times Ajay is as usual Mukesh Tiwari is decent Sadashiv, Deepak Shirke and Shakti ham like no day Gulshan irritates with his fund a Rajpal is funny at times, while Farida is as usual
