For me, this movie is okay, but not good. The animation was beautiful and some scenes were just amazing but overall the plot was just plain and boring. The plot felt like nothing had happened. Mufasa dies, Simba runs away, he comes back. There was no build up until the very end at the final fight. The entire middle of the movie was just Simba growing up, Timon and Pumba joking around, and songs. It’s just not as good as people say. In my opinion, the only reason it’s a classic is because it was made during the Disney renaissance. It’s not the worst, but it’s not the best
