Rating: 10/10 (22 July 2019)

Don't listen to bad reviews. I can't believe how hard it is to impress people these days. I've been a huge fan of The Lion King since childhood. I could barely wait for this movie to get released and it did. Not. Disappoint! Not only was it stunning, but it had just enough creative new lines mixed with original songs. This is a REMAKE, so for those of you expecting a new story line, you will be severely disappointed. This movie exceeded every expectation I had and blew my mind. It was funny, heartbreaking, exciting, beautiful, and brought me right back to being a 5 year old who couldn't take her eyes off the screen. Hats off to Jon Favreau for creating this masterpiece and sticking true to the original story. I cannot wait to go see it again!
