Description: Simba idolizes his father, King Mufasa, and takes to heart his own royal destiny. But not everyone in the kingdom celebrates the new cub's arrival. Scar, Mufasa's brother—and former heir to the throne—has plans of his own. The battle for Pride Rock is ravaged with betrayal, tragedy and drama, ultimately resulting in Simba's exile. With help from a curious pair of newfound friends, Simba will have to figure out how to grow up and take back what is rightfully his.
Reviews:
**Its not as bad as Cats or Star Wars 9.** Disappointing and inconsistent. 2019 seems to be the year where the big movies were made to look good, but are in reality vapid and this is no exception. This looks good mostly (except when Simba is a "teenager" and a lack of genitals means that the animals do not look really real), but everything else is below average. Also, the "real-ness" of the animals make some scenes way more scary for children. The choices made in this are....strange. -The voice casting is weird (some African sounding, some American, and others in between) - like there was no plan. -Extra scenes and dialogue do not add to the movie and even lessen it when compared to its predecessor. -The way the songs have been re-done/ recorded are just wrong and **this is the first Zimmer score that I have not liked** in....forever (it feels like he just phoned it in). -And a baby warthog suddenly appears at the end near Pumba, but no mother...WTF? There is still a plot though, so there's that... which means its better than the shambles that was Rise of Skywalker or Cats. Yet another movie to forget.
