A glorified re-release

Rating: 1/10 (19 July 2019)

We first saw a full cast photo and expected so much. With them bringing back James Earl Jones we expected there to be a great story, that pays homage to the original. We were hoping for something new, something that the original lion king did. Bring new elements that we weren't expecting. They might as well have re-released the movie as an HD remaster. BARELY any differences other than the beautiful CG, which is great but that it. Nothing more, but CG as we know from Star Wars doesn't age well. From the start to finish we have barely any differences. Same lines from Jones, same script read out without Jeremy Iron's charm.
