That's how you bring Lion King into reality!!!

Rating: 9/10 (22 July 2019)

I didn't understand the reviews at all. First off, the movie was amazing! It had so much heart in it and the visuals were brilliant. This really felt to me like Lion King being brought to life. Yes they do keep a lot of elements the same. It's the same story I think is what people are complaining about. So yes it is the same movie but the whole point was taking that story and showing how it plays out in live action. I was crying and was on the edge of my seat. They used the circle of life opening starting with the sun rising as Simba is being born which was brilliant. They used the same musical montages throughout as well. Just can't wait to be king is there too. The battle between Simba and Scar at the end was brooding and intense especially by the way it was brought into reality. Simba becomes king at the end like the animated original. Lion King has always been inspirational and this live action remake keeps that inspiration. Everyone complains there is no emotional expressions on the characters. But it's being brought into live action for god sakes! The point was to use real looking animals. Lions never have facial expressions. Anyway that's my review. I would suggest going to see it and you might have a blast!
