Outstanding quality of animation and an improved storyline

Rating: 8/10 (21 July 2019)

I was happy to see that they took advantage and changed some parts of the film that didn't make sense plot-wise into believable points that made an enjoyable film for all ages.
The animation is the best I have ever seen. Each detail to the objects and beings, their fur and all the textures, attention to their small mannerisms such as the constant flicking of ears, gentle breathing, and so on amazed me.
There were hardly any slip ups or imperfect areas, one such being the face of one of the hyena's which looked a bit CGI'ed. But that was it. Everything else was so life like that I was transported to Africa.
The humour was amazing, they managed to have some really good jobs during the hyena parts and the Timon and Pumbaa parts.
The music was great, I wish they had Elton John singing his songs, but I enjoyed the new ones too, especially the Can You Feel The Love Tonight duet
