CGI looked beautiful but film fell totally flat. None of the emotion of the original and some of the voice actors were not very good. Have to agree with other reviewers, it was unnecessarily heavy on the Beyonce element. James Earl Jones was wonderful as always and I did like Timon and Pumba. Can't help but feel it was a bit of a waste of time really. What is the point of remaking a classic if you're not going to improve it?
