Hands down, Disney's best animation movie ever.

Rating: 10/10 (12 October 2003)

With a Touch of Hamlet and a sprinkle of King Lear, The Lion Kings is a real achievement in every aspect. A tale about coming of age and the right of destiny that has a real timeless effect on all age groups. Not only is this movie such a monumental film in animation but is an achievement in motion picture scoring as well. Elton John and Tim Rice not only bring a great soundtrack to this epic but accompanies it with a sense of style that has not be duplicated ever since its release.
A real Disney classic in every sense of the word, and a real keeper for generations to come.
