The Lion King remake a visual wonder

Just like over two decades ago since the original 1994 animated movie, viewers were once again transported into the African savanna where a future king, Simba, is born.

So many people often wonder why people are paying to see a story they have already seen told before.  But director Jon Favreau’s all-new ‘The Lion King’ is indeed a visual marvel, and technological triumph in terms of bringing the characters to 3D. The photorealistic nature of the movie is impressive, but it is basically a repeat of the 1994 2D classic.
