Just another soulless cash grab

Rating: 1/10 (11 March 2020)

Ultra-realistic looking animals CANNOT express any of the emotion that made the original animated version so special, vibrant, & endearing. Hearing these animals speak felt like the voice actors were just sitting there narrating a National Geographic special. It was so cringe-inducing.
The original was so awesome because you can see the amazing amount of detail that was paid towards having the characters express emotion.
It's a shame that this movie made so much money from people who loved the original so much that they blindly paid to watch anything new with "Lion King" in the title. I am so glad I did not have to pay to watch this drab, muted, soulless version of a far-superior classic masterpiece.
