The King Roars Again

Rating: 10/10 (1 October 2019)

It has been 25 years since the animated version of this Walt Disney classic. No one would have thought or imagined that you could even that anything like this could ever happen. The Circle of Life is something that is not only special but is the heart and soul of every believer that watches something so spectacular that your jaw just drops, or your heart just melts because of the music and the scenery. But it all comes down to 2 words: Hakuna Matata.
Jon Favreau did, not just an amazing job, but an incredible job, reimaging the beauty of what was done 25 years ago in that little-known movie called The Lion King. With an all-star cast that was beautifully casted and crafted - from Donald Glover to the ever-funny man Seth Rogen to the conniving and evil Chiwetel Ejiofor to the beautifully talented Queen of R&B and Hip-Hop BeyoncÃ© - I could go on, but I will stop there.
I loved everything about this movie and the soundtrack is to die for. From the original songs to new songs that we will come to love, both movie and soundtrack will go down in Disney history as the biggest blockbuster of the last century.
