This is by far the worst of the live action disney movies. A literal beat for beat recreation of the orignal movie that adds nothing and actaully removes a huge amount. My wife and I were tempted to leave around the half way point due to how bland this film was.

Annimation: 4 / 10 To start with the cgi annimation in this looks great when still but when the characters are moving it looks really off like key frames of annimation are missing leading to a really jumpy experiance thats also moves just a little too fast. The expresions on the characters is usually very bland and doesn't really convay any emmotion.

Voice Acting: 2 / 10 it really sounds like almost every single voice actor phoned it in to be honest. James earl johnes sounds like he is board for each line. scar is an extreamly generic villin voice with no charm. The only voice actor who actually sounded like they really wanted to try was zazu's voice acter but even then it comes across as really generic.

Music: 3 / 10 most of the music sounds like it has been ripped stright from the orignal which is ok (if a little lazy) but they then reduced one of the major (and best IMO) songs to be a 20 second snipit of the song. The timing of the music is also very poor with one example being "can you feel the love tonight" being played during the day and is sandwitched between 2 arguments so it makes no sense to be played there.

Jokes: 3/10 Most of the jokes are the same as the orignal but with the punch line being altered. the problem here is the new punch lines are 9 times out of 10 not funny. The only 2 characters who were able to get a laugh consistently were tomon and pumba

The biggest problem that this film has is that it just misses the point of the orignal film completely with a lot of the sences they cut being far more important or entertaining than what was added which essentually was just extra annimation of non characters running around.
