Variety

A clever retelling of a classic tale from skewed p.o.v. of supporting characters.

It will provide plenty of laughs for kids but adults who loved the original film won't find much to hold their interest. It's moderately funny the first time, after that you roll your eyes.

Rated: 7/10 •

Whimsical and fun, The Lion King 1 1/2 is an enjoyable romp behind the fake scenes of a real movie.

Rated: 4/5 •

It is creative, and that's alone enough to rocket it to the top of the Disney sequel heap.

"The Lion King 1 1/2" is a very clever "syncquel" that's entertaining in the beginning but weighed down by a premise and format that seem ill-suited for a full-length feature.

Rated: 6/10 •

I鈥檝e seen The Lion King 1 1/2 in March 15, 2012, which I have on DVD, because this film was Funny, Hilarious, Non-Laughing and Cute movie. Timon & Pumbaa we鈥檙e being best friends in the whole story, which we see Adolescent Simba in the midquel. Mention about Timon鈥檚 Mom, she is sounded alike Marge Simpson. I hope it was Re-release of the Disney animated 2004 feature film in Cinemas, If would be an 4K Ultra version maybe someday. also the Running Time was 83 minutes long.

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars
