Another Disney masterpiece

Rating: 9/10 (12 June 2000)

The quality of Disney's films has always been high and this film is no exception. The breathtaking scenery of Africa is done to a T. Scar makes a worthy villain with the hyenas as his henchmen, and Timon and Pumbaa, as well as young Simba himself, provide humour. The songs fit in very well and are crucial to the storyline. My only possible complaint is that the second half of the story isn't quite as enjoyable or interesting as the first, possibly because matters have become serious. This is a movie one can enjoy over and over again, and one for the whole family. 9/10
