lion king...


My favorite childhood movie is The Lion King. There are several things I liked about this movie. One of my favorite things is that it's about families, the good and the bad. It shows how families can fight, can have misunderstandings, but really they are always there for you. I also liked the humor. Timon and Pumba are really funny and just know how to enjoy life.

The movie starts with a baby lion being born and his parents lifting him up for the entire kingdom to see. As the movie goes on the young lion starts to defy his parents and explore areas he's not suppose to visit. His father and uncle have a fight and the uncle blames the young lion for his father's death, the lion is still very young so he believes his evil uncle. The young lion runs away and meets up with a meerkat and a warthog and they become very good friends. The lion grows up and he learns a lot about life from his friends. Eventually the lion misses home and returns to fight his evil uncle and take his rightful place as heir to the kingdom.

This is a feel good movie, when I watch this movie it makes me laugh, smile, cry. I always feel good after seeing it. It doesn't  matter how many times I watch it, I still laugh. If you're down or don't feel like you fit in this movie helps you realize we all have a purpose and reason for what happens to us in life.

I think my favorite character is Simba because he's the main character, and he blames himself for his father's death. I like watching him grow up and learn that we can be forgiven for our mistakes. I really like how in the end Simba returns home and wins out over his evil Uncle.
