Still the mightiest animated feature of them all and the undisputed "king" of the box office, Walt Disney Pictures' "The Lion King" roars to life as never before with its dazzling large format debut. Reformatted specifically for the giant screen from the film’s original digital elements, this special limited engagement offers moviegoers a chance to experience one of the greatest animated adventures of all time on the most majestic canvas imaginable and with a spectacular newly remixed soundtrack. With its compelling story, breathtaking animation, colorful characters, Oscar®-winning music (songs by Elton John and Tim Rice; score by Hans Zimmer), the film follows the adventures of a young lion named Simba, who just can't wait to be king. The sudden death of his father, Mufasa, and the treacherous actions of his Uncle Scar lead Simba into exile and ultimately on a hero's journey of selfdiscovery. Adopting the "hakuna matata" philosophy of his comical jungle guardians -- a warthog and a meerkat (Pumbaa and Timon) - Simba eventually comes to terms with his destiny and returns home to Pride Rock to help put things right. Join the "circle of life" and relive the magic, majesty and music of this entertainment milestone. -- © Buena Vista Pictures [More]
