I've got something to say...

Rating: 3/10 (23 July 2019)

I know some internet trolls will come on here and say:
"This is pure garbage and not what I expected from the trailers, it looks nothing like the original, this should've been burned to ashes by Disney's executives a long time ago."
I'm just here to deliver a positive opinion on this film despite the minor and major changes here and there.
This movie still holds up like the original has, the direction from Jon Faverau is good, the musical score and it's updates is tremendous, Fantastic performances from Donald Glover, Béyonce, Seth Rogen, Billy Eichner and of course the man, the myth, the legend himself, James Earl Jones.
The photorealistic process of the film is spot-on and makes it look like I am viewing a nature documentary for a rather particular reason.
One of the changes I didn't like were the changes to the two hyena's names as they were originally "Banzai and Ed" but Shanzai's name is still kept in the film.
This incarnation of Scar isn't just as sinister, delirious, wicked and Shakespearean compared to the one and only, Jeremy Irons.
The last fight scene between Simba and Scar was so epic, that it eventually put a smile on my face with excitement and happiness as it followed the original.
Timon and Pumbaa are still laughable with jokes that continue to amaze audiences new and old, they even reside in the jungle with other sorts of amazing creatures which was something completely new.
Oh and one more thing I forgot to point out was that the return of Elton John and Tim Rice was amazing to be suprised about for the long-time fans of the original.
Still great despite a few changes.
8/10
