Review of The Lion King (1994) by Daron%20 P — 07 Dec 2017

The Lion King is one of the most beloved Disney movies to be created. The lion is seen as the fiercest and most ferocious animals in the animal chain giving in the name "the king of the jungle." This movie portrays that perfectly with a family of lions being seen as the top family in a part of Africa almost like a medieval hierarchy.

Mufasa and Sarabi, Simba's parents, are at the top of the Pride Lands chain and overlook the lands the same as a king and queen would.After his father's death, Simba mourns the death of Mufasa.

From the standpoint of a family, it is hard for a young child or in this case cub to cope with the death of a parent, especially when he witnesses it. Scar also causes the special bond between a father and son to be broken.

With Simba's rage and anger towards his uncle, he ends up growing up to be a strong, determined lion who followed in his father's footsteps. This movie depicts the theme of a family feud. This film is great for children to watch the growth of a lion cub into a strong lion, but it also has the themes manipulative family members, loyalty to one's family name, and that the members of a family do not have to be blood-related to be considered family.
