Cast & crew
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.
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
