Disney’s The Lion King Roars into Theaters
By Ella Barone
The Lion King is to this day, one of my favorite Disney films. From the beautiful soundtrack to the lovable characters, everything about the film is just excellent. When I found out that they were creating a live-action for the movie I just about freaked. The beautiful animals were going to be seen on screen like never before, and the fantastic songs were going to be sung once again.
I was lucky enough to see the film a few days before the general public and develop my opinions, which we’re all amazing. The first thing I noticed about the film was the beautiful scenery. The whole movie was done using CGI and animation technology, and if you didn’t know that, you could have never guessed. Everything looked as if you could reach out and feel the textures off of the screen.
Also, the talent in the film was phenomenal. Not only were there singer/songwriters, but also amazing actors and actresses. Some of them included Beyonce Knowles-Carter, Donald Glover, Seth Rogan, and so many more. To make the film even better, there is a brand new song that is sung by Beyonce. I won’t spoil anything for you, but I can tell you that you will absolutely love it.
The songs were sung once again, and I felt my heart swell when I heard them. These songs were a part of my childhood and hearing them resung by the amazing talent that is a massive part of modern music made me feel like I could relate to the film in a more modern aspect.
The story of the Lion King is the classic original tale, but with the interpretation comes new and old. We get the same characters and the same story, but the emotions and the way it looks on the screen are entirely different.
The funniest thing in the film was the Pumbaa and Timon duo. They kept the pair of jokesters and had me laughing throughout the entire movie. There were multiple points where I couldn’t hear the dialogue because of all the laughter in the audience. The characters couldn’t have been better.
The all-new Lion King is out in theaters now. You and your family will absolutely love this new film and all it has to offer.
