Very Disappointed

Rating: 5/10 (6 December 2001)

After all the hype, I was expecting something unique and refreshing like "The Lion King". Instead I got a fairy tale with a plot used a thousand times with enough annoying Eddie Murphy interruptions that I wanted to pull my hair out every time the donkey spoke. Sorry Eddie, stick to Rated R where you shine. The movie is too violent for kids and too ordinary for adults. Big disappointment considering all the hype.
