The Lion King (2019)

CGI is beautiful
21 July 2019
The CGI is great and the actors who portrayed Simba were great. Unfortunately they wanted the animals to be so realistic looking that they didn't show emotion in their face....and it took the love and magic in the film and left it pretty bland and boring. If the animals talk and sing (which isn't realistic)then they could have let them still make facial expressions. I was ready for it to end. I also expect more from Beyoncé....at the beginning of can you feel the love tonight it sounds odd like she's trying to add an accent to it...?! Also they had the song Can you Feel the Love TONIGHT performed in daylight!? Again losing some of the magic.... I didn't expect this film to be better than the original but I at least thought I'd like it more than I did... The Jungle Book was SO good and this film was lack luster. The cgi is truly amazing but aside from that it's not worth the remake...
