Movie Reviews

Tri-City Herald - 10/10 by Gary WolcottGreat idea. Those of us that caught it on a big screen the first time can experience it again, and our children and grandchildren - who didn't - can have the thrill.
Needcoffee.com - 10/10 by Widgett WallsIs the 3D version superior to the 2D version? No. Is the film still magnificent? Yes.
Suburban Journals of St. Louis - 10/10 by Mathew DeKinderWhile the 3D is surprisingly effective on the 2D, hand-drawn animation, the real treat is getting to see this movie once again projected up in all its larger-than-life glory.
StaciWilson.com - 10/10 by Staci Layne WilsonHakuna Matata aside, this is a worthwhile film.
TheMovieReport.com - 10/10 by Michael DequinaMakes up for its shortcomings in the musical department with a strong dose of mature drama.
Rolling Stone - 10/10 by Peter TraversA hugely entertaining blend of music, fun and eye-popping thrills, though it doesn't lack for heart.
Guardian - 10/10 by Peter BradshawThe animation is simple and bold, with fluency and muscular confidence, and Elton John and Tim Rice's songs drive the story onward with terrific fervour.
Arizona Daily Star - 10/10 by Phil VillarrealSpectacular, but overrated in the scheme of great animated films.
IGN DVD - 10/10 by R.L. ShafferA classic story told through immersive visuals, great voice work and some of the most memorable songs in movie history. The Lion King defines animated classic.
Sarasota Herald-Tribune - 10/10 by Christopher LloydThe Lion King was made a mere 17 years ago, but seems from a different era now. Here was a "kiddie" flick that was big, grandiose and ambitious, a sprawling Shakespearean epic playing out on the African savannah.
