Intro: For once we had a long lunch break, so we decided to spend our time watching not just one, but two movies one after the other!
Film 1510: "The Lion King" (1994), Roger Allers, Rob Minkoff
Watched: from my laptop
Language: English
Watched with: Fre
Briefly: one of the best movies Disney ever produced, "The Lion King" is still rockin' it! After a sequel ("The Lion King II: Simba's Pride") and a prequel ("The Lion King 1½") and two television series ("Timon and Pumbaa" and "The Lion Guard"), next year will be the time for the CGI remake directed by Jon Favreau. The lion is roaring loud and clear!;
it's impossible not to cry when Mufasa dies. It's such an emotional scene, so perfectly achieved. And the fact that this is a family movie targeting kids and teenagers, it's even more impressive how they managed to deal with death and loss. Chapeau.;
the songs are amazing, one of the best stuff you can find here. They're catchy, funny, and impossible to forget. "Hakuna Matata" is brilliant, "Can You Feel the Love Tonight" powerful, "I Just Can't Wait to Be King" delightfully entertaining. My personal favourite though is "Circle of Life".;
surely one of the best animated movies ever made. Entertaining, smart, dark enough and morally satisfying, "The Lion King" is the perfect choice either for kids and adults who want to enjoy a great story and a very well drawn movie art piece.
Film 126 - Il re leone
Film 1298 - Il re leone
Film 1510 - The Lion King
Film 1511 - The Lion King 2: Simba's Pride
Cast: Matthew Broderick, James Earl Jones, Jeremy Irons, Rowan Atkinson, Moira Kelly, Nathan Lane, Ernie Sabella, Robert Guillaume, Jonathan Taylor Thomas, Niketa Calame, Whoopi Goldberg, Cheech Marin, Jim Cummings, Madge Sinclair.
Box Office: $968.5 million
Worth watching?: it's undoubtedly one of the best known animated movies ever. It still is a huge success and since it hit the theatres has been one of the greatest box-office earners of all time and it reached the cult status a long time ago. What should we ask more from a single movie? Nothing. So just enjoy the pleasure of watching it.
Awards: 2 Oscars win out of 4 nominations (Best Score and Best Original Song for "Can You Feel the Love Tonight"); 3 Golden Globes won (Best Motion Picture - Comedy or Musical, Best Original Song, Best Original Score).
Key word: Jackpot.
