Film Review: The Lion King (2019)

Rating: 8/10 (2 January 2020)

The Lion King.... oof. The Lion King original was fantastic, a musical that had decent music, animation that was outstanding, drama, betrayal, romance and the greatest characters Disney have ever made! But the new Lion King is a word for word remake, different actors making the acting worse, CGI making it feel like we are in a computer (which is good) and the same action as the original. It's just that the original was so perfect that nobody wanted this to happen. But it was okay. If you have seen the original Lion King you know the action that is about to go down, and you are just waiting for the CGI. But those who haven't are waiting for a brand new story. There is mild threat and child's strong language but those aren't worrying. The only thing that is worrying is the acting. 8/10.
