Wasted 2 hours and popcorn in this movie. Ok, visuals ares stunning. The original movie is full of emotions. When Musafa dies, just looking at the expressions on Simbas face in the original movie, you cry. You can see lots of emotions in Mufasa face when he starts teaching a lesson to Simba (angry face), next moment he tells him that he was scared that he would lose(expression of fear) and when Simba says that hyenas were scared, you can see the happy and playful expression on Mufasa face in the original movie. In the remake, you can see realistic lion but with flat face irrespective of what's going on. Can you enjoy 2 hours of visual stuff with all the characters expression less?? Just moving the mouth is not enough.
Overall, it's a time waste. I saw this movie as a kid and watched it again and again. Now, I told my daughter how good this is and how many times I saw this in theatre. Took her to the movie and I was so disappointed. However, she seems to have enjoyed the story but I am going to get dvd or blu ray of the original one and show her how good the original movie is.
