Nostalgia, 7.8 rating

Rating: 8/10 (21 July 2019)

I was born in 2002 so the original Lion King was/is my childhood. This new movie made doesn't have the exact same feeling as the original, but maybe that is because I/we have such high thoughts about the original that it is damn near impossible to get the same feeling with a remake. But this movie was still amazing, it was basically the same movie, but that doesn't make it bad. It is a "live action" remake, they were not supposed to change the movie. This was the perfect way to remake the movie. Maybe remake is the wrong word, I don't know. But I cried, I laughed and I felt deep deep nostalgia with the singing. I am just lost for words really. It is VERY good. The things they could've done better was some cast choices. This movie deserves way better than these 1's and 5's that people are giving out. They have no taste for nostalgia, because that is exactly what this movie is about. NOSTALGIA
