As fantastic as the VFXs are (and they legitimately are breathtaking) this movie is an utterly pointless "Remastered" version of the one of classical animation's undisputed highlights. And as admirable as the filmmakers' dedication to lifelike representation of the animals behaviour is, the lack of any discernible emotion creates the movie's biggest problem - a lack of engagement with the characters and drama.

It doesn't have the same heart as the original. but I still enjoyed myself. This is definitely better than the Aladdin remake. It felt really nostalgic singing along to the iconic songs. If you're a Disney fan, I would definitely recommend this.

Yes, this does follow the original step by step - but there's enough good stuff in this film to see it twice in 20 years. What did not work were the voices, which suffer from being put in the mouth of hyperrealistic animals. Only Seth Rogen as Pumbaa got close to Bill-Murray-as-Baloo-territory. Zimmer's music also dithers between cliché and outright imitation, and yet all of that is easily forgotten when you see the incredible animation - for me this film is the start of a new era for CGI.

I’ll just go ahead and be the one who says it’s one of those remakes that didn’t need to be done, takes away from the magic I recall in the cartoon. And I love gambino, but his voice is too distracting as Simba. But still, the advancement of CGI makes it inevitable to remake anything production can get their hands on.

It's a delightful movie. I don't understand why it's getting such lukewarm reviews. Watch this one to remember what you loved in the original on the first place, and try to see it through the new lens. Try to avoid comparing them.

As Disney continues its weird and wild world tour of reselling 30-somethings' childhoods back to them at $12 a ticket, I'm left asking the question, "What's the point of this movie?" What does this movie give you that the 1994 offering doesn't? Beyonce as Nala. That's about it. Distracting voice acting and unflattering CGI (if you're going for, y'know, emotion) underscore the absolute lack of need for this remake. I didn't hate it. But it doesn't need to exist. Just watch the 1994 one, 'kay?

Others have noted that the animals' facial expressiveness was lacking -- I noticed that as well, but I had the opposite reaction and thought they shouldn't have even bothered with animating their mouths.

* I don't remember if Simba was this much a wuss in the original, but man, how easy is it to manipulate him? Even while he is to become king. Beyond stunning vfx, but not much else to offer in this one apart from the side characters maybe.

This is tricky to rate. I heard one person explain it very well "It's like you're enjoying the movie, but also bored at the same time". I give it points for the visual technology, for the score, for the cinematography, and some of the acting, but overall there's just a feeling that it's lacking the soul it needs, because they decided to make the animation just a little too realistic, where the animals simply are expressionless, and it hurts the movie.

I know it's possible but I was so impressed with the visuals. I don't care what people say - I loved it. This being good doesn't make the original (1992) less good. Did I miss some of the iconic lines? Yes. Did it ruin the experience for me? No. *Good

The Circle of Life(less Disney remakes). So much effort has gone into these minuscule tweaks and adjustments designed to deviate from the original, but for what purpose? It’s still the same film, just longer and worse. Even the “groundbreaking” visuals will age quickly (the weightlessness of some of the crowd shots in particular already looks flimsy). This isn’t quite as aggressively dreadful as 2017’s appalling Beauty and the Beast, but The Lion King is somehow even more pointless.

Wow this did not work. Most of what makes this movie 'good' either comes from walking in the shadow of the animated feature, or the occasional moment when Disney ditches the expected script to poke fun at itself. But most of the movie tries too hard to copy the original, and what changes it does make to 'plot' or personality are extraneous or go nowhere. Watch the original. Forget this. Voice acting was lacking. Emotional expression wasn't there. It's a pale copy.

Pointless. The updated visuals only underline how superficial the movie's world is. Despite what Mufasa might lie through his teeth, we can all see that for him all species are not created equal, and a true happy ending would have involved the Czar's whole lineage getting wiped out, as happened historically.

Disney animation willfully abandon and set fire to all the sacred rules they discovered about how to make good, enjoyable and engaging animation. Thought the current crop of Disney execs got their wallets stuffed so the moral of the story is: that's all that matters.

This version of The Lion King just did absolutely nothing for me. It wasn't a bad film, and so I don't feel like I can rate it poorly, but the truth is that it really did the bare minimum for me. The casting, while seemingly perfect, was unimpressive. Glover and Beyonce specifically were uncharacteristically dull. And while some shots looked beautiful, the animal CGI feels like it regressed even from Favreau's last attempt in Jungle Book. Just sorely disappointing.

Walt Disney animasyonları film yapmaya devam. Aslan ailesine yeni doğan Simba Kuruyemiş, kral olmak için yaşayarak öğrenir. Eğlenceli bir film. Fakat filmin 2. yarıda fazla ritüel kaçtı. Aslan olmak zor. Öleceksin. Tanrı olacaksın. Tüm sorumluluk sende. Ölme aslanım ölme.

I think I’m positively biased here due to sheer nostalgia and Eichner stealing every scene, but I did quite enjoy this overall. Technically it’s great with the level of CGI but it does feel quite hollow and just feels like a sort of ‘clinical’ remake for me. Decent but see the original and see the show in the theatre.

Bad. Because of a lack of emotion in the characters, there is no attachment to the audience. It's a shame they only mumble about since the voice cast did well. Furthermore the realism route they took with this remake takes away from the atmosphere of certain places. While they did the jungle reasonably well, The elephants graveyard just isn't spooky and Scars' character doesn't look menacing. I think they should have embraced more of the character movement and lighting of the original.

The original is one of my favorite Disney movies, so I have to nitpick a little. I didn't appreciate some of the songs being cut short. The lack of visual emotion from the lions is pretty noticeable too, especially when the voice acting is so good. That's not to say it's bad though. The music is still great and the CGI is absolutely astonishing. I didn't even feel the length. It looks and feels like The Lion King, it just lacks the overall spirit of the original. I still liked it though.

The photoreal environments were stunning, but no amount of detail or colour could save each one from becoming Uncanny Valley, Africa as soon as an animal opened its mouth to speak—though, admittedly, Timon and Pumba were a riot. To boot, the story is terribly weak, the photorealism acting as a catalyst to realize a bevy of unfortunate elements (the lack of agency for the lionesses, the terribly shallow romance, the harem, the super twisted politics of the savanna).

It's worth your time if you love the original, but if you haven't seen the 1994 version, go and watch that one. The archetypical story and characters are working here as well, Mufasa might even be better than in the animated movie. However the animals show almost no facial expression at all which added very much to the drama in the original. Also the songs are just terrible - aside from the opening - they put so little effort into them, it would have been better if they left them out altogether.

While the visuals are breathtaking and awe-inspiring, Disney's photorealistic remake of The Lion King doesn't feel nearly as lively or epic as the original, instead feeling stale and uninspired. There was not a single moment where I thought that what I was watching in this film was better than its predecessor.

I feel nothing. So, I guess I'm emotionally on par with the reimagined characters in this baffling remake. We have crossed into a darker timeline. This film will eat the box office alive while everyone stares at the screen, as dead-eyed as the animals, and come out content because it looked real nice. It does look real nice. Too bad this animation robs the original story of every single asset it holds. This was the worst thing I've seen in years. Please don't spend money on this.

It's truly a technical marvel. Not only every animal, but every blade of grass, grain of sand, rock, tree, sunset, moon were all animated. But there's a reason animators of old didn't draw animals with realistic faces. These realistic lions, etc lack the emotion that the 1994 version have. It wasn't really until Timon & Pumba arrived that the film had some life to it.

Imagine all the colour, emotion, life, magic, joy, and personality sucked out all in an instant from one of your all-time favourite movies. That's this 2019 Lion King remake in a nutshell. As the end credits were rolling, I felt nothing. I didn't care about anything. I never felt sad, happy, overjoyed, or any emotion the entire time. I was soulless, just like this entire movie was. It was Disney at their absolute worst. What happened to artistic integrity, originality, or effort? Garbage movie.

The Lion King is a half hour longer than the film it is adapting. This was a fact I was dreading. However, the added length only serves to highlight what was already moving and beautiful in the original film, letting shots linger and fostering character depth that I found lacking in the first. I still find the Circle of Life troubling as a concept, adult Simba's story remains uncompelling to me, and stiff facial movements let the otherwise flawless animation down, but I really loved this.

Visually it's impressive and the voice acting is great but the CGI doesn't benefit the film in any way. The lacking facial expressions of the animals make it feel like you're watching a nature documentary.

Some voice-work and singing from Glover and Beyonce is the only improvement this has over the already dismal original. It makes no attempts for improvement, but conversely makes this cartoonish story completely at odds with the mundane photorealistic aesthetics. Emblematic of both our culture’s nostalgia and amnesia, this new barrage of Disney remakes is further uncontested evidence of the studio's artistic bankruptcy.

The effects are incredible and, for me, enough to recommend the film. However, not only is it ridiculously close to the original (we're in 'Psycho' remake territory here!), every single scene was much less engaging for me. There's just something flat and lifeless about this version. Rogen is brilliant casting for Pumbaa, though, and I enjoyed the film a whole lot more once he and Billy Eichner's Timon showed up and brought some new energy to the hitherto almost completely pointless proceedings.

Unlike other reviewers I found it highly original. However, I probably ought to point out that this is the first movie I've ever seen. I'm 12 days old, and I already love going to the cinema, at least according to my dad. When I grow old enough to be able to actually see the screen and stay awake for more than 1% of the film, I'll probably be even more flabbergasted and impressed.

There's as usual not a single thing that matters this does better than the original. It's extremely impressive visually, but pretty much everything else is at least just slightly less good. But let's be fair here - the original is a nearly insurmountably great animated classic, and this is not really that much worse. So it's a fine film. But you're still way better off with the 1994 Lion King, which you're reminded of constantly while watching this.

Like all the other recent Disney remakes, this one improves on the original in no way whatsoever (it's actually the most scene-for-scene identical of them yet, a la Psycho 1998) and is only palatable if you’ve never seen the other one. And if you've never seen the other one, well, do *that*. Why are we wasting our time here?

I can see where this is going. I'm afraid to say it, but I think as long as James Earl Jones is alive, they'll go ahead and even remake New Hope, all in its spectacular CGI-action glory.
