The Lion King (2003, DVD)

I didn't have this on DVD. I got it for my grandkids and they love it...it is especially great when they go on road trips and can watch it in the car. A must have for kids of all ages.

Did not respond to emails. Finally over a month later once I openned a case against him he sent a pirated copy of the Lion King. He list DVD as original and authentic. SCAMMER BEWARE!!

I love this movie. My son and I watched it years ago. I decided to purchase it so that I can now watch with my little girl. She and I love the songs and the movie itself.

Was not as stated on Ebay. Lion King DVD was not in a SEALED package as stated. Seller didn't care to take care of my concerns. Would not return my mail. BAD Seller!!!!!!!!

An excellent movie for children and people of all ages. I enjoyed every second of the movie. I highly recommend!

It was exactly what I was looking for because Disney has pulled it off the shelves - so I appreciated having it being sold on ebay. Thanks

A perfect story of jungle animals who can love just as well as humans A very heart warming story. Make sure you have a box of tissues near by.

A great walk through your childhood disney memory of watching movies that kept your attention. Its like owning a memory. This was a pefect reminder of everything you enjoyed about the original movie.

THIS SELLER IS A FRAUD! i BOUGHT A DVD FROM THIS SELLER, NEVER RECIVED IT, OR ANY RESPONSE TO MY EMAILS ASKING FOR IT OR A REFUND!! DO NOT BUY FROM THIS SELLER!!!!!!!!!

Wow what a great transaction, I bought this movie on Wednesday it was in my hands by friday morning. Would do buisness anytime. Thank you

Let's get something straight right now. The Lion King is a perfect movie. Be it live action or animated, there are few others I can list that reach its level of quality. Seeing it in theaters back in the mid-90s was a great experience. Even if I wasn't old enough to understand some of the darker issues in it back then, I enjoyed the movie, like the millions of other kids. Now, at almost 20, watching the movie really gets to me. This is one of Disney's more grown up movies. I'm not saying that to make it sound like it's too violent or there's any hinting at mature themes, but all the talk about death in the beginning, about the Circle of Life, that's some pretty powerful stuff to be talking about in a family movie. With this re-release of the movie, hopefully more parents or future parents will keep it around and show their kids this piece of movie history.

The movie opens up with possibly the most grand of Disney openings- a sunrise. An African song plays, and the animals look towards something that we can't see. Every type of animal in the area starts heading towards something. Birds, elephants, buffalo, giraffe, zebra, you name it. Soon, we see a great rock formation- Pride Rock. A lion stands atop, overlooking everything in his kingdom. Then, a mandrill makes his way through the crowd of animals that waits. He hugs the lion, and makes his way to the lioness behind him. They've had a baby. The mandrill takes the cub, and holds him high up for all the animals to see. They cheer in unison- they have a new prince. Some opening eh? After this, we're introduced to another lion- Scar. He's the king's brother, and obviously jealous of the whole deal. He didn't even show up to the ceremony. Mufasa, the king, makes a note of this, telling Scar that he should've shown up for his own nephew's birth. Scar walks away, as it's no big deal to him. Time passes, and Simba grows up a little. He's still a cub, but capable of doing things on his own now. Mufasa tells him about the Circle of Life. How all living things are connected. Lions eat the antelope, but when they die, their bodies become the grass, upon which the antelope eat. Simba is also shown his kingdom, which is everything that the light touches. Unfortunately, the light doesn't touch one spot, which sparks his interest...of which Scar helps him get even more curious about. It turns out to be an elephant graveyard. Simba heads toward it with his friend, Nala, and they almost get killed by heyenas. Mufasa saves them, is disappointed that his son disobeyed, but understands. Scar, who's working with the heyenas, is also disappointed, and takes matters into his own hands- since they failed in killing Simba, he's going to kill Mufasa. In doing so (in a very tragic scene), Simba goes into exile, and Scar takes over. Simba finds two new friends in Timon and Pumbaa, who teach him to take life easy. But with time, the true king realizes who he is through his friends, and there will be justice.

As you can see, this is a pretty big movie. It's not complicated by any means, but just the overall picture is a lot to take in. A dad telling his son about life and death, only to die in saving his son who hasn't reached adulthood yet, was always touching. The music playing during that scene adds even more dramatic touch to it. Scar, as I've mentioned, is an absolute treat. He's probably my favorite Disney villain.

This is the best seller that i have ever come across! Extreamly motivated and dedicated i felt like this person wanted my to recieve my package, i really appriciate this seller!!! The highest score this person should recieve

Received video, one of greatest videos ever made. Animation,songs,and lyrics are great. alot of comedy and some sad scenes as well. My granddaughter and i have watched this numerous times and acts like it is the first time watching it everytime. She loves the songs . Would highly reccommend for children around age 3 and of course adults. ( I loved this video as much as my granddaughter ).

The seller was fast at shipping and did an excellent job of getting out the movie to me! The movie is loved by the entire family!

Video and Audio is supreme in this release. Especially vibrant is the 5.1 sound. Of all the older Disney releases, this one benefits the most I think, with the powerful music and sound effects present in this release. Hearing James Earl Jones as Mufasa blaring in thunderous 5.1 sound is quite amazing. Likewise the excellent music, such as the opening Circle of Life. Present in this release is the original theatrical version as well as a version with new music/song. The movie would be worth it as a single disc release without all the extras! The Lion King will grab you whether you are 4 years old or 40. Two thumbs up!!

Good movie, the sealed package did not come with the usual papers on the inside. My kid loved the movie.

This is a great movie for kids and adults alike. I purchased this for a three year old who had the movie on VHS and loved it so much we purchased it on DVD.

Unfortunately I cannot say weather I like the product or not because, even though I ordered and paid for it a month ago, I STILL haven't recieved it.

I LIKE THAT THE PRODUCT WAS IN ITS ORIGINAL PACKAGE. WHAT I DIDN'T LIKE WAS THE COVER ART LOOK LIKE IT HAD GOT WET AND THEN DRIED. I BOUGHT THE MOVIE BECAUSE I DIDN'T HAVE IT IN MY COLLECTION AND ITS A CLASSIC.

I love this movie it a great one i grow up watching it and it perfect for my lil brother and sister.

Bought the movie because it is my fave disney movie ever; and it doesn't work. not in my DVD player or in my pc. waste of my time.

not original shrinkwrap and not original case.... DVDs and dust jacket seem genuine though..... but I worked in a dvd selling store and I know they are not original packing... Stated in sale Brand New and sealed..... more like resealed and color copied on good paper... I can see the discolor in the title sleeve.

I couldn't believe he told my brand new still in package i have to say that was the truth...till i realized that it was a frickin burnt copy of it...thanks i wasted $23 on it...
