Viewing booked in the IMAX in 3d with the family
Massive Lion King fans but I am have some trepidation with the reports of the voices matched to the faces of the animals.
 
I saw this today and what a beautiful film and experience. :) Soundtrack was fantastic and the cast was funny especially Seth and Billy. Definitely recommend to those that cherished the original like myself. :whistle::cool: #HakunaMatata

Saw this last night. I was a little worried because I had heard some negative things... BUT I totally disagree with them! I really liked it.
This is one of the better Disney "Live Action" remakes that has come out. And maybe thats because its so close to the animated film. the CGI is incredible. It looks SO REAL. I was in awe the entire time.
