The remake has its hits and misses.

Rating: 6/10 (24 August 2019)

Firstly.. I am a big fan of the original LionKing. So when Disney decided to remake the LionKing, I knew I had to see it. What's good.. the CG looks very real and at no point in time does it look unreal. You want to believe that the Lions are really talking or moving. It's almost a remake of the original movie scene to scene.. almost. What's bad.. certain scenes in the original movie had a lot of charm.. like Rafiki advising Simba to come back, which I thought was quite tame in the remake. Because the original movie was animated the expressions from the characters added to the emotional scenes which could not be achieved in the remake. Watchable.. but I am still a fan of the original movie.
