Hey Disney please stop doing this!

First of all - Completely terrible pacing for the first 30 minutes! Holy smokes!
Something just doesn't feel right the entire time with the tone of the content and the animation. Like it's light hearted moments don't really land properly with the pseudo-realistic attempt at the animals. It feels like this territory of 'live action' and this kind of material just does not work. Singing real looking lions is a hard sell in anyone's book but yeah - it doesn't hit the mark at all.
Much of the dialogue feels very weak. Some of the lines are terrible. 'Lions! Attack!' made my partner and I look at each other like 'what the heck is this?' I just can't fathom how someone could watch this and compare the experience to the original in terms of a homogenous film.
The comedic duo actually were great. But yeah... the rest I would leave.
