Amazing - everything changes

Rating: 10/10 (25 July 2019)

It is comprehensible why so many people are hating on this one, similarly to what it is going on with many other live-action movies produced recently. It appears to me that people tend to have an affective memory towards the original Lion King (1994), since a lot of folks have watched it as a young kid, and because of that people idealize everything about that movie to the detriment of the 2019 version. So almost by reflection, as an impulse, folks reject a lot of things in this one; the novelties and even the things that are repeated from the 1994 flick. But in fact, if you try to watch the 2019 Lion King with the heart of a kid, you will very probably like it, and furthermore, get emotional and involved with the story and the characters again.
