Fun but doesn't compare to original

Rating: 9/10 (8 August 2019)

The Lion king is considered to be one of the greatest family films out there. The animated one is a movie that will probably go down in history. So when the live action was announced, everyone was pretty excited and had high expectations- i know I did.
When I saw it, I enjoyed it, it had all the classic songs and the memorable moments, the humor and the movie generally mixed well, and the graphics were amazing. However if you compare this new live action with the original, it just isn't as good. Emotional or action scenes felt rushed and underwhelming. I'm sure many of you will understand once you see it.
But overall, great film
