I loved the first movie watching it with my kids and then seeing the Lion King parade at Disneyland but that fades into oblivion now I've seen this one. I couldn't helping "ahh-ing' every time I saw those beautiful animals - impossible to believe they are not real. I disagree with those who found the animals expressionless - what about those incredible expressive eyes of Rafiki - amazing.
My only reservation on this movie is that I feel its a kids movie turned into an adult one. I am glad I didnt take my 4 year old neice as she would have been really upset by the scenes of Mufasa's death.
Otherwise a huge 'must see' from me.
