From
the magnificent musical opening over breathtaking African vistas to its
rip-roaring, emotional charged climax, The Lion King reigns
supreme as animation's greatest crowning achievement. Set amid the
majestic beauty of the 
Serengeti,
Disney's epic coming-of-age saga tells of the love between a proud lion
ruler, Mufasa, and his son Simba -- a naive and curious cub who "just can't
wait to be king." Out from the shadows prowl Simba's envious Uncle
Scar and his hyena henchmen. Their scheming for the throne leads
to tragedy...and Simba's exile from the kingdom he should rightfully 
rule.
Befriended by the warmhearted warthog Pumbaa and his manic meerkat companion,
Timon, Simba forgets his regal responsibilities and adopts the carefree
lifestyle of "Hakuna Matata." But can Rafiki a wise mystic baboon,
help Simba reclaim his true destiny in the "circle of life"?
With a #1 hit soundtrack featuring songs by Elton john and Academy Award®
winning lyricist Tim Rice, and score by Hans Zimmer -- and the greatest
cast of voice-over stars ever assembled -- The Lion King
triumphs with animation described by the New York Daily News as "no less
than perfection...stunning!"
