Stunning visuals yet its the same story disappointing

Rating: 5/10 (26 July 2019)

The Lion King is the remake of the 1994 film of the same name which was dubbed the greatest animated film of all time along with winning an Oscar for Best Song by Elton John.
I'm going to break down the pros and cons and my final verdict of the film as I don't want to break down the synopsis as its the same as the 1994 version.
Pros
Excellent visuals and the voice cast is fairly good.
Seth Rogen and Bill Eishner as Timon & Pumbaa stole the entire film.
Love Beyonce's new song Spirit which can be heard in the film.
Donald Glover was great as Simba.

Cons
Same story
Pointless
Same score as the 1994 version
Mufassa's death didn't have me emotionally invested at all as like I said in my first con its the exact same as the animated one.
Verdict: If you love The Lion King (as I much as I do since its my runner up film of all time)then you probably might like it,but for me I was just robbed as I wanted changes in this film e.g. change Mufassa's death scene. At least with the remakes of both Aladdin and Beauty & The Beast we did know what was going to happen but at least it wasn't using the same script and the same exact score like what this Lion King gave us. Its like they took the 1994 script and just read it out loud in a booth but without giving it emotions.

Disappointing. Watch the animated film instead.
