One of walt disneys best! - The Lion King Reviews

Walt Disney animated motion picture set in epic proportions, masterfully done with encouragingly high hopes of a Disney animated feature winning a Best Picture Academy Award. The Lion King will miss out on the highest accolade, but it was definitely regarded as one of Disney?s best offering for quite awhile and it will concisely receive a Golden Globe Award for Best Motion Picture Musical or Comedy. The animation is breath taking, the scripting is compact, and the cast is well assembled, as directors Roger Allers and Robert Minkoff combine all these great elements to deliver a well appreciated spectacle. With accurate casting, Matthew Broderick, Jeremy Irons, James Earl Jones, Moira Kelly, Jonathan Taylor Thomas etc. should all be recognized for there impeccable voicing of characters, also noted are comical performances by Ernie Sabella and Nathan Lane. An Academy and Golden Globe Awards for Best Original Score went to Hans Zimmer, and Best Song [Can You Feel The Love Tonight] Elton John [music] and Tim Rice [lyrics]. The Lion King is personally regarded as one of Disney?s best work, as it matches the greatness of the earlier masterpieces of Snow White And The Seven Dwarfs and Pinocchio.
