I first watched this movie when I was about 3. lol, back then I didn't appreciate it, but I now have the video downstairs in my collection. The Lion King has many wonderful, comprehensible morals which are built up right to the very end. Plenty of action, a well designed plot, great animations, (I personally like the songs). It is a very well thought out film, and although it may appear to be for younger audiences, I would still encourage everyone to see it at least twice.
This video is basically a biography of a young lion born to a "royal" family (the lion being the "king of beasts") Symba lives the life that many of us can relate to, curioius when young, and he grows up to be a great and mighty king due to his experiences along the way. Faced, however, by an "evil uncle", he must face many hardships along the way, including separation from his family for a long time. All these years of pain, and renewed love of the friendship that he bonds with an unlikely couple of Timone an pumba, This film really touches the viewer on an emotional level.
A superb production.
