Believe it or not all the children enjoy this film from identifying the animals, to singing along with Simba, to enjoying the vibrant colors. This is a heartwarming film, with incredible animation and amazing songs. Worth every cent. Review ID: 10000000000028012 Was this review helpful?

For this movie to come out on DVD .. this is the best animated film ever made and i'm most sure I am not the only one who believes this... I still take parts of this movie and use it in my daily life.. like when the baboon wacks simba in the head , and simba says ouch, why did you do that.. and rafiki says " its don't matter its in the past" I apply this line from this movie to my everyday life daily.. This is a keper for all times. Review ID: 10000000001728253 Was this review helpful? Report this review Review created: 05/26/07 by: 10 of 13 people found this review helpful. This movie rocks.

Simba who thinks he is responsible for his fathers death leaves his home only to return later to his home in shambles. Not that he is king he must take on his evil uncle.

This was the best DVD in 2003. With great songs, enhanced picture and sound quality, this makes a great gift and collectible item. Review ID: 10000000001605805 Was this review helpful?
