Another solid Disney remake!!

Rating: 7/10 (29 July 2019)

Another solid remake from Disney!! I had high hopes going into this film due to it's great director (Jon Faverau) and the iconic 1994 original. I'm happy to say that it's easily met my expectations. Faverau once again gives us a phenomenal cast of voice actors. Everyone gives great performances. Chiwetel Ejiofor could perhaps be a little bit more charismatic as Scar. The standouts are easily Eichner and Rogen as Timon and Pumbaa. Every scene with them was utterly delightful. In my opinion, the first section of this film with young Simba was ocassionaly quite tedious and monotonous to sit through, but once it broke into it's stride and really got going the characters were fun and interesting and it became a beautiful romp of an adventure.
Visually stunning and thoroughly enjoyable
