Movie Monday is a feature here on my blog, in which I’m rambling about movies I’ve watched lately.
Today I want to talk about the movie that was my most anticipated picture of 2019, and now I finally had a chance to see it.
The Lion King
The Lion King was my most anticipated movie of 2019. I couldn’t wait til’ it got to theaters, and then once it did, I couldn’t go and watch it because I found out I was pregnant and my doctor forbidden me to be anywhere near children.
I was devastated, to say the least, because knowing I wouldn’t be able to see this amazing picture on the big screen kind of broke my heart.
Nevertheless, now when it finally came out I was able to see it at home, and to say that I enjoyed it would be an understatement.
I can’t even find the words to describe my feelings. I felt so nostalgic, filled with all kinds of positive emotions.
I just loved it so much!
The movie is funny, as the cartoon version also is. I was little disappointed that they didn’t include my favourite scene in the movie (the one where Zazu has to sing to Scar), but they included so many new ones plus also an original song.
However, I liked the old songs so much better.
Now, let’s talk about the cuteness!
Little cubs were to die for! Simba and Nala reminded me so much of GiGi and my late Simba.
I mean, every animal in this movie was cute! Even hyenas was adorable.
This movie made me so emotional, as I knew it would because even when watching the trailer my eyes get teary.
I know that the reason behind that is the fact that I grew up with original The Lion King Movie, but this time around it was like watching enchanted version of something that was already perfect.
I highly recommend The Lion King to everyone, no exception!
I loved it too – so beautifully done on many levels!

Is this a remake in cartoon Disney style or more like action figure toy story style? I am going to watch this after your high recommendation, maybe not until my Christmas hols though. I think I need to start making a list of all the good films you recommend.

It is real action live movie, sort of like the newest Jungle Book, if you’ve seen it. Sometimes animals look so real.
If you plan to make a list, make sure to put this one on top! 😉
