Great movie with minor disappointments

Rating: 8/10 (27 July 2019)

Having seen the original when I was six years old (and multiple times after it), I went for the new one with the dialogues learnt by heart AND also with an expectation that there is NO WAY life-like animals will be able to give the expressions the older ones had. The movie was a visual masterpiece to say the least.
Having said that couple of scenes that comes to my mind that was a let down for me were when Nala and Simba reunite and when Mufasa speaks to Simba through the clouds. In the former I felt the surprise element that was there in the earlier movie upon seeing each other after years, was very short in this one. And in the other scene, which I feel was one the most important scene/conversation of the movie didn't live up to the mark. I personally believe that scene shouldn't had been altered with.
Having said that, it was still a great movie and I will be watching it again! And this time, with my father.
