Plot: 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)...( read more read more... ). 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

    i see that the whole idea of lion king 1½ is quite distinctive...we can rewatch the first Lion King from a different perspective-which is a good scheme...but overall, this is a perfect time wasting movie couse it's not literally entertaining and after you watch this, you'd be left with nothing but saying, 'what the hell was that?' it's just like disney had nothing better to do and create such movie during break time, instead...better not do anything like this yet again...
