Roland Emmerich sure likes his disaster movies.

This is his 2014 disaster movie that, taking climate change as it's starting point, has entered the popular vernacular - "it's like the day after tomorrow out there" - and, until the movie 2012 came along (I'm typing this in 2019) also must have held the record for portraying natural disaster on the big screen.

The main focus of this one is on both Jake Gylenhall and Dennis Quaid, with the former becoming trapped in New York when a series of natural disasters leads to a new ice-age leading to the latter (who, natch, is an experienced climatologist) to trek has way across the frozen North America to rescue his son.

Hmmm ... I'm not really sure what to call this: is it a prequel (as it tells the story of Simba's dad Mufasa, as memorably voiced by James Earl Jones in the original '94 toon), or a sequel (as it's presented as a story being told to Simba's own kid)?

Regardless pf what it is viewed as, what is undeniable is that it is another 'live action' (note the inverted commas) movie, following on from the 'live action' 2019 version of the story, with some of the same actors returning to the same roles.

It's also very much a traditional Disney movie, complete with songs interspersed throughout and a bit of light menace!
