MY THOUGHTS ABOUT THE MOVIE..
To be sincere before going to the cinema to actually watch the movie which is a remake of the old lion king which many of us watched while growing up,i was really a bit skeptical if i was going to actually enjoy the movie because i am a type of person who sometimes do not enjoy a movie which i already know the plot but "lion king"was different and i enjoyed it all through and felt so happy like a child again.......
This new "lion king" is an animation movie that will make you laugh out loud alot,some of the parts of the movie that got me laughing out loud was all the whole Hakuna Matata sequence,the scene where Pumbaa was actually going rogue after all the body-shaming which occurred when the movie was about to end,you know it was funny because he actually forgot he was a strong wild animal and should act that way... .....
Oh Timon and Pumbaa??those guys really cracked me up,they actually did a very great job as they brought in some lovely comedic delight into the movie because there were alot of very serious scenes especially scenes where scar was involved,but timon and pumbaa brought it in the comedy part and made me laugh just the way i wanted....
While i find some scenes in the movie to be really funny,i must also say the movie also had his emotional side which made me feel emotional too,example of the emotional part of the movie was the Mufasa death sequence and also the scene which was actually the father-son scene with the stars and also the old kings really looking down on them,that part was really touching...
Another part of the movie which i loved so much was when simba and Nala also met each other again especially their playful fighting,i find it to be really cute and lovely....
Another amazing thing which i loved about the movie was that the actors in the movie was a mixture of old actors and new actors and there was a kind of blend for both the old and new generation, the voice acting in the movie was awesome though i was kind of dissapointed with the beyonce's voice in the movie or should i say i was expecting too much from her...
The audio of the movie was superb and i could literary hear all the sounds that existed in the movie,and the movie directing??it was also awesome too,the director did a very good job and he was able to direct the movie in a way that even those that are not a fan of animation movie will kind of enjoy the movie and forget that they are not a fan...one of the things i loved about the old lion king was the choice of the music in the movie,this new lion king did not dissapoint and i am happy about that...
Another beautiful thing about the movie is that the scripts were played out nicely and you could easily understand every scenes in the movie and not easily predict what will happen next,a movie gets more interesting when you cannot easily predict the scenes in the movie...
MY RATING..
I will rate the movie 8/10..yeah i won't give it 10/10 because i have seen better movies but the 8/10 shows that i find the movie to be interesting and it was worth watching it....
