While there have been Disney films that have impressed and succeeded in certain areas, it is incredibly rare to find a film with the all-around talent and consistency of The Lion King.

Rotten

The Lion King is short on humor, long on melodrama and AWOL on fun. It was intended to be important and is pretentious instead.

Disney' newest animated feature is an explosion of color and emotion. This tale of a lion cub growing up to avenge his father's death is filled with primal themes and deep feelings.

The Lion King is classic, first-rate Disney, an animated musical for all ages that will roar its way to huge grosses and take its place among Disney's best.

The Lion King, Walt Disney's 32nd full-length animated film, is a glorious hodgepodge, a jumble of styles, emotions and ideas that turn into something wonderful. This is Disney animation at its best -- and at its most sentimental.
