Everything with Mufasa felt rushed. Dialogue, scenes, everything. Also Mufasa had poorer CGI than the other characters.

Story wise it was almost exactly the same as the original but only without feelings. I am sorry to say that I felt nothing in any scene of the movie. No emotions what so ever.

But it wasn't all bad. For instance, it was great hearing James Earl Jones as Mufasa again. I didn't expect that. Also, Seth Rogen as Pumbaa is really the best match ever made between an actor and a character.

There were some pretty funny one-liners in the dialogue which were mainly delivered by Pumbaa. Also the chemistry between Timon and Pumbaa was great.

The way I see it the movie didn't suck but it wasn't good either. This being from a perspective where I didn't expect anything.

It will get 6 stars from me which I probably will change again if I ever see the movie again which is doubtful.

** Saw it again. Forget those 6 stars. I don't see the point in this remake. And also Beyoncé is annoying and has the only straight out bad song in Disney history. I was thinking of rating the movie with 5 stars but meaningless adaptations are flooding the Disney productions and this has to stop. 4 stars **
