The Lion King is Bad But Not Awful
It wasn't as bad as some people are saying but still a disappointing experience.

If you're looking for a more realistic version of the original then you'll probably like it.

If you're looking for a movie that adds something of value to this story then you'll probably be disappointed. It's the same story and half of the dialogue is verbatim to the original.

The strongest parts of the movie were the visuals and the scenes with Timon and Pumbaa. At the same time, however, the visuals actually hurt the film because everything looked bleak and boring. The animated film had vibrant colors and the characters were full of emotion. Disney wanted this remake to be realistic, which they accomplished but it prevents the film from giving the audience the same emotional attachment as the original.

The voice acting for most of the characters wasn't good. This stands out because a lot of the dialogue was repeated from the animation so the whole time I kept thinking about how they handled things so much better in the original.

The remake isn't an insult to the original but its existence seems pointless. It's a very well made film but suffers from a lack of originality.

A very weak effort that tries to breathe new life into the Chucky doll. Takes a different approach to the most of the cheesy sequels but just feels low budget. Stick with the original.

I actually just watched this as well and liked it a lot. Different kind of Chucky, though, I would admit.

I watched it a while back. I think the opening was good but otherwise it felt tame and low budget.

"Unknown" isn't a really bad movie, just an absurd one. It has its qualities from moment to moment.

This book is totally nuts. The twists are so unexpected. I ignored my life for a weekend to read this in nearly two sittings. So hard to walk away from.
