There were no aliens but there were giant carnivorous plants that were not of this world. There was no call for them to be included in a film like this. They were more appropriate in movies like King Kong.
This movie was a lot of fun to watch with dazzling animation. The producers allowed a slackness in the facial expressions of the characters that sometimes made them look like they were wearing rubber face masks that could not articulated or controlled. After a wile, my eye accepted the facial expression slackness as the animation style of this particular movie.
Over all, I thought this German version of Tarzan was a joy to watch. My middle school age kids loved it and my wife liked it. After renting it, I think I would like to buy the DVD, but a Region 1 DVD does not appear to be available for purchase in the US. You can rent the DVD from Redbox and then not return it and then get charged for the full purchase price.
