The Next M Night Smalayan

Rating: 9/10 (24 July 2019)

Like the great Hollywood films of old, Quentin Tarantino, Martin Scorsnese, and Luc Besson, The Lion King is a triumph to triumph all of the movies before. Directed by Disney, this live action remake retells the classical tale of Simba, a lion, who sings with all the other lions. The stunt work on display here is incredible. Just to get the lion not to eat the bird but also to move it's mouth to talk is an incredible feat alone. Also the movie is very scary. I did not expect to be so afraid of the baboon, but he is. This film will go down on history as a film that was very good. If only Disney would make the Lion King 1 1/2 in this way, the world I think, would be perfect. This film also has a twist at the end like M Night Smalayan. Just after the final battle, just as the credits start to roll, it is revealed that Simba was Danny Glover the entire time. Incredible. 9/10 because the film would have been better if I saw it in 3D.
