Disney's finest moment - The Lion King Reviews

It is impossible to watch this film and not be in awe of the delicate balance the movie strikes between life lessons (yes, we all die Simba), obligations, and the simple joy we can all find in relationships. To say this movie was a true treasure is an understatement. The dialog and interplay between charactors is magical. The songs flow with toe tapping efficiency, and the story is a delight to adults and children alike. As a parent who searches for ways to discuss life (and like's burdons) with my children, this movie was a revelation. The Lion King is soon to be released again on a special edition DVD. I plan on being in line to purchase it the day it arrives locally. This is children's film making at it's finest.
