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.

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