Originally rated 5 but its gotten worse since then. This is mainly for 2 reasons:

First and minorly, I think it's quite clear this, like all other live action remakes, is a soulless decision to try to make more money (it made around 2bil!). There were practically no changes to the actual story, it's literally a copy-cat (pun intended)

Second, and most importantly, Jon Favreau did a terrible job directing this. And it's sad because I've seen works of his that I enjoy but the decisions in this movie just were not good. The realism in the animation was one of the worst decisions. I feel nothing watching this movie. Why should I care if none of the other characters show they do? Also the Lion King is a musical, a musical that has its own literal Broadway production. The lions are already singing and dancing as is; why is there no expression to match with it? I've done scene by scene comparisons between this and the original and this version has a worse version every time. I have no reason to re-watch this when I'm not getting anything new out of it and the original is much better anyway. Disney better not let Jon Favreau make another live-action remake; give him Mandalorian or Marvel but not this. Don't watch it, it's pointless.
