Visually, the movie was really great, the setting seemed very real and the characters were well made. However, the movie lacked emotions. The characters' expressions didn't change much through the movie. But what was even worse, the voice acting was emotionless as well. It seemed like the actors were simply reading their parts without any emotions and with no connection. Because of that a character like Scar lost the traits that defined him, and because of that many strong scenes provoked no emotions. In addition, they changed some crucial conversation parts. I have nothing against plot changes but they should've kept what was important to the story and character building (such as when Simba finds Mufasa). Finally, I liked how they've kept most of the songs but why change Scar's song which is considered to be one of the best villain songs? Didn't feel the 'Be Prepared' vibe from the song and singing. I was prepared to cry like a child while watching the movie that defined my childhood but walked out of the cinema feeling disappointment and a desire to go and watch the original one.
