Despite its smaller budget I feel that this sequel to one of the grandest animated movies of all captures some of the same magic as the original Lion King. Let me make it clear, it is nowhere near the same epicness of the original, but I enjoyed it. To sum up the good stuff, let me start with the story and then move along. I like that it is based on Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, because why not when the original was based on Hamlet. It also makes Simba's new role as king of the Pridelands and his relationship with his new daughter, Kiara, interesting. The villain in this movie is also pretty good despite some plot holes about the origins of her pride and their connection to Scar. She wants her cub, Kovu, to grow up to take back Pride Rock. And she enjoys every minute of plotting it. It is intense! The romance between Kiara and Kovu is one of the core elements of the movie and is just as credible as Nala and Simba in the first movie, and personally I prefer their love song over "Can You Feel the Love Tonight" (don't kill me). Speaking of songs, I actually like the songs compared to the other direct-to-video sequels from Disney. Of course it doesn't stand a chance against "The Circle of Life" and "Be Prepared", but they are not stupid or forgettable, but catchy, heartfelt and well placed in the story. Lastly, I will make a short description of my issues with this movie. Kiara is pretty bland (Simba is more interesting). Timon and Pumbaa are not funny and Zazu without Rowan Atkinson is almost like the Genie without Robbie Willams. The animation is not insulting the original movie, but you can feel the smaller budget.

I loved original The Lion King movie since childhood but never cried on it. But The Lion King II: Simba's Pride made me cry! This is absolutely touching story about great power of true love - the Love that can defeat hatred! The first movie is great but pretty simple (well, maybe remake will be more complex) - however, the sequel is much better! And Kovu is my favorite movie character for now!

This film was ( to me ) a GOOD Sequel *for Disney's Standards*. It had a couple good songs *Some GREAT ones* like, "He lives in you" and that new villain song! "We are one" and that love song at the end was good. But I HATE the song that Rafiki sings. It was NOT good. But that's the only main problem I have with the film. My friends told me it was a hard one to sit through * Because I am a huge fan of the first film *. But I actually like it. The characters are fun, Even the new ones like Kovu and his family. Since Scar was my favorite Disney villain I didn't think that this new movie villain would be NOT as good. The new villain is actually pretty close to being as awesome as Scar. I mentioned this earlier but the new villain song is GREAT, Not as awesome as "Be Prepared" but again, it comes pretty close. The opening song is pretty amazing, Not as breathtaking as "Circle of Life" but still pretty catchy and memorable. Not the best Disney film but compared to "Return of Jafar" *Which I also love BTW XD* Its a cool Disney Sequel.I Love most of the songs and the animation isn't bad. The plot is decent and I love the movie *Not as much as the first movie* but its one that you can sit through and parents might even be able to enjoy it as well as kids.

Almost as good as the first film - this sequel is well worth watching! Simba is very much like his father Mufasa in a lot of ways but still in need of his father's guidance. The older Simba gets the more he finds himself sounding and acting like Mufasa in this animated fun filled adventure.Timon and Pumbaa are just as funny as ever... along with those hyenas. Rafiki the mandrill is still strange. The two cute characters Kiara and Kovu's relationship is much like Nala and Simba when they were young.I would recommend watching the first Lion King film then watching Lion King 2. The Lion King 1 1/2 is also a great film in this series.9/10
