Never watched this movie before. It's quite good. Innocuous family entertainment. Classic Disney that follows the classic plot of such movies. It's not like this story is uber-complex or even remotely innovative. Remember: i's for kids. But the story has a lot of serious and dark undertones that make it enjoyable for adults too.
Images and animations are beautiful and some scenes are iconic. Even I know that although I've never this movie before.
I wasn't prepared for all the music though. It's almost like opera. I thought the IRL musical was an entirely different thing and only loosely based on the movie. I generally don't like musicals (never went to the Lion King musical either) But in this movie, all the singing is not annoying. It makes this movie special. Especially sounds that are inspired by African music and languages are quite entertaining. (No wonder: Elton is a legend for a reason).
