Binding: VHS Tape EAN: 9780788847349 Format: Animated, Closed-captioned, Color, NTSC ISBN: 0788847341 Label: Walt Disney Home Video Languages: Manufacturer: Walt Disney Home Video Number Of Items: 1 Publisher: Walt Disney Home Video Release Date: February 10, 2004 Running Time: 77 minutes Studio: Walt Disney Home Video Theatrical Release Date: February 10, 2004 Editorial Review: Amazon.com: The Lion King 1½ is an ingenious sequel that retells the original film's story from the perspective of best pals Timon the meerkat (voiced by Nathan Lane) and Pumbaa the warthog (Ernie Sabella). Anyone who has wondered how this odd couple met will find out here, beginning with Timon's flight from home following disgrace and his chance encounter with the sweet but lonely Pumbaa. With the arrival of young Simba (Shaun Flemming), The Lion King's familiar tale is reborn via a fresh angle, fleshed out by returning characters Rafiki the wise monkey (Robert Guillaume), Shenzi (Whoopi Goldberg), and Simba's love interest, Nala (Moira Kelly). While the retooled narrative proves a novel experience, The Lion King 1½ is really a vehicle for voice actors Lane and Sabella, whose comic performances are shamelessly, broadly funny. Matthew Broderick, Julie Kavner, and Jerry Stiller are also in the vocal cast. --Tom Keogh Average Rating:
 Rating:  - The Lion King 1 1/2Having watched THE Lion King a countless number of times, 1 1/2, while filling in the gaps about the personalities Timon and Pumbaa, is not as fun to watch as THE Lion King. Set in a home movie house review format, with Timon and Pumbaa watching a re-view of their stints in The Lion King, the frequent interruptions via remote by either Timon or Pumbaa were rather irritating, to say the least. However, it is well worth the watch compared to The Lion King II. Rating:  - awesomeThis is a riot,if you love Lion King ,like we do, you'll love this.All the same voice overs except Simba (he grew up!) and great music.My 3 yr.old and I love to watch this.The whole premise is wonderful!Buy it!!! Rating: - greati receive the movie very soon, thank you i love it there in very good condition Rating: - Surprisingly good and hysterically funnyI didn't expect much from this movie, and really only got it for my son. I was so glad that I watched it with him, though. During a couple of sequences I was laughing so hard that I couldn't breathe, which is pretty rare for me. As far as repeat viewings, my 4 1/2 year old son, who only likes about 1/3 of the movies he sees enough to merit a second viewing, watches this constantly, and I definitely don't mind watching it with him again and again. If you're looking for a ... Read More Rating: - The circle of lifeFirst came the Lion King. Then came Lion King 2; Simba's Pride. Then Disney stepped back a bit and made this movie, which retells the original Lion King, except from the viewpoint of Timon and Puumba, the Meerkat and Warthog. Funnier than either Lion King 1 or 2, it strips away the romance and drama and is pure comedy; a combination of slapstick, wit, irony, sarcasm and bad singing. More than the other two movies, this is perfect for kids as there are no scary moments, and nobody dies. All told, ... Read More |
