Reviewer notes
RecommendedCertainly not one of Disney's better animations from a technical perspective - the artwork lacks the vibrancy and detail of many of their earlier stories; but the combined efforts of Sir Tim Rice, Elton John and Hans Zimmer make this an enjoyable fantasy adventure. It is told in two parts - the first sees a son "Simba" born to the king "Mufasa"; a curious little fella who, alongside his friend "Nala" is inquisitiv...
RecommendedTrusted family reviewersIf you enjoy reading my reviews, please follow my blog :) First of all, this is (obviously) a SPOILER review. I mean, who hasn’t seen this movie yet? If by some extraordinary circumstances you’re one of those unlucky souls, stop. Spend the next hour and a half watching this animated masterpiece and come back here.

I watched The Lion King and it still hits differently. The story of Simba finding his courage, facing his past and learning what family and responsibility really mean is so good. The music and characters make it an easy one to enjoy with family. The little story about this movie I start watching it with my babies thinking that it only cartoon for kids but I finally enjoy the movie than the kids.
I grew up watching the Lion King , and it is still my favorite animated movies. They are some sad moment but the movie also has a great message about courage, family, and finding your place in life. I also love the music that makes the movie even better. Simba's journey is what i like the most, how he learned to face his past instead of running from it. It's definitely a classic that is worth watching.
The Lion King is one of the most interesting movie that can be viewed. You learn a lot of beautiful lessons. I loved Simba's humility when he grew up and learned that he is the King. Very good movie that I highly recommend
