"The Lion King" still resonates after 25 years.

Rating: 8/10 (21 July 2019)

"TheLionKing" is visually stunning feat and still manages to be full of heart, emotion and filled with nostalgia.
In this family film, after a family tragedy, a young lion leaves his kingdom to learn the true meaning of bravery and responsibility.
Director Jon Favreau's almost exact retelling of the classic Disney story comes to life again 25 years later with beautiful CGI and a voice cast for the ages. Hans Zimmer's thunderous score still resonates within you, along with Tim Rice and Elton John's songs that you can't help but sing along to. Of course the orignal 1994 film will remain the classic it is, but this remake is definitely an achievement in its own right. "The Lion King" will move you, make you laugh and have you fall in love with the classic all over again.
