Simba, the prince of the animals' kingdom, whose life was not always happy. Simba's uncle, carried out an evil plan. To save his dear son, the old lion king died. And Simba, with his uncle taking his father's place, had no other choice but to flee. On his aimless road, he met two new friends, a weasel and a boar. They were hearty. The friendship between Simba and the other two brought him great courage. Through efforts of himself and help from his friends ,Simba finally defeated his uncle and became the king of the animals. This film taught me that a friend in need is a friend indeed and that only through perseverance can one reach his goal.

    When I was a kid, my younger brother had a genuine disc of "The Lion King". He played it every weekend. I watched it with him. I remembered every episode and sang every song. (My favorite is Peng Peng and Timon's wailing when they see Simba falling in love...) I watched the live-action (lion) version yesterday, the familiar music played, and nostalgic feelings flooded into my heart again. After the animation becomes realistic, with the original music and characters, I always feel a strange magic. And I also suddenly discovered that there were so many elements of artistic creation in cartoons, and the exaggerated lines were a feast for the eyes. Using technology to make the lion infinitely realistic, it can't replace the artist's divine, humorous and cheerful heart. The animations are less realistic but lively and fun, full of energy. Watching the real lion version made me like the animated version even more, and seeing the creative parts that I hadn't seen when I was a child was also very worthwhile. But I still admire what Disney is doing. It's fun to reinterpret things that I liked when I was a kid. Technological progress is good, but creativity and art are still needed, and everything is like the land of Africa, which is constantly developing and making people happy.

    Soulless, meaningless and worthless adaptation, neither digging out new content in the original story, nor any attempt to innovate, it is really a two-hour giant running account, a boring world of wild animals Grand Tour. Compared with the dark epic temperament of the previous "Fantasy Forest" directed by Jon, this film is really like a childish joke, especially the singing and dancing scenes contributed by CG animal images, which are so stupid, and the songs and dubbing are also ugly. To the explosion, the level of stupidity is "comparable" to "Beauty and the Beast".

The Lion King quotes

  • Simba: It's over, Scar.

    Scar: Have mercy on me.

    Simba: Mercy? For what you did.

    Scar: It was the hyenas. Those were the revolting, scavengers made me do it. I was planning on killing them all.

    Simba: You fooled the hyenas? Just like you fooled me.

    Scar: Simba, you wouldn't kill your only uncle.

    Simba: No, Scar. I'm not like you.

    Scar: Oh, Simba. You are truly noble, and I will make it up to you. Just tell me how I can prove myself. Tell me what you want me to do.

    Simba: Run... Run away, Scar. Run away, and never return.

    Scar: Yes. Of course... As you wish.

    [looking down and seeing a pile of hot coals, began to angry]

    Scar: Your majesty!

    [throws embers of fire at Simba's face]

  • Scar: Say it, Are you the king?

    Simba: No, No-I...

    Scar: Are you the king?

    Simba: No...

    Scar: No what? Say it!

    Simba: I'm nothing

    Scar: Then bow to your King!
