The visual effects are stunning. Probably the best CGI I have ever seen.
But the story, zzzzzz. I was so bored. Such a lack of passion, there is no essence in this movie.
I am sad for the generation that will grow up with this version. I didn't even see a kid crying. Is The Lion King! I still cry!
I am a 90s kid. I grew up with The Lion King. Still, I only saw the whole movie twice because I couldn't take "that scene". It was so devastating to me that I still feel it. I had to skip it everytime.
It was such an emotional event for me. I am now 28 and, I am trying to watch it again but I get cold feet because I know it will be very painful.
The Lion King is not just one of the best animated movies of the whole time. It's also one of the best movies ever made.
I didn't want to watch this version. But I was with my little cousins and I said, why not?.
What a huge mistake. This movie didn't make me feel a thing.
The CGI is amazing but the emotions are just not there. You can't put human emotions on the face of a real lion. It looks creepy and just doesn't work. It doesn't translate well.
And the changes of the original story were not too many. But still it felt very short and hollow.
I was just waiting for the movie to be over.
Also, if Disney was going to make a reboot. Why not update the story? Why not talk about climate change?
That is something that the Ice Age has done so well.
It was a missed opportunity to deliver such an important message right now. I think there is not one healthy ecosystem right now on Earth.
I wish this movie were not a reboot but a "based on". So, they could give us something fresh.
I didn't understand the whole concept of the controlled hunts. I know in the animated version made sense. But if you are going to go realistic, follow the rules of the reality you have created.
At the ceremony of the introduction of the new king, why the hell the herbivores were celebrating?
I was such a bizarre and unintentional funny moment.
This was a very bad experience. I don't recommend this movie to anyone. Not even children.
Children should stick to the original. And Diseny too.
We want original content. Not half-assed "reboots".
Please. Stop.
