Scar's justice stems from the reasonable questioning of Mufasa's status. The injustice lies in unscrupulous means and recklessness of family affection. Mufasa’s justice comes from its virtue of self-restraint, and its governance techniques are sufficient to maintain a balance in the domain under its control. Unjust is because, as a vested interest, it lacks self-reflection on the inheritance system, and therefore has dissatisfaction with its younger brother. The innocence of turning a blind eye.

Simba was reckless and eager to try, eventually causing his father's death, exposing the father-killing complex deep in his heart. The entire process of transformation from doubt, self-denial to escape, self-exile to search, and self-confirmation is described so accurately, and at the same time, friendship, love, mission and other elements are added, which is a big growth film. Although the plot is a little bit superficial, there is no lack of real touching details: Simba raised his father's arm and curled up under the corpse to seek shelter, which was really teary.

In addition, the image of hyena is also very interesting. Mufasa regarded them as enemies and drove them out of the country by drawing the land as a boundary, but Scar had to share the territory of the Glory Kingdom with them in return for their assistance. The glory country under the rule of the knife quickly decayed into a barren land. Does this mean that the impropriety of hyenas is only because as carnivores, their demand for food will cause the chain to break? Simply put, there are too many predators and not enough prey, which leads to ecological degradation. Then the justice of the lions lies only in the iron and blood power-they have the ability to drive excess predators out of their territory. The one with power is set to be wise, handsome, gentle, and helpful, while the other is wretched, cruel, and stupid. After all, power worship!

The Lion King quotes

  • Pumbaa: Anything we can do?

    Young Simba: Not unless you can change the past.

  • Scar: Simba. What have you done?

    Young Simba: There were wildebeests, and he tried to save me. It was an accident. I didn't mean for it to happen.

    Scar: Of course. Of course you didn't. No one ever means for these things to happen. But the king is dead. And if it weren't for you, he'd still be alive.
