The Lion King 1 1/2 is visually beautiful, musically delightful and slap-the-knee-till-it's-raw funny! There are oodles of fun filled hours and super-wide smiles awaiting you.

In no way does The Lion King 1 1/2 measure up to the standards set by the original movie, but it does add an enjoyable twist to the fable.
06/04/04
If they must milk every franchise for all it’s worth,at least they approached this one with a creative perspective.I’d still like to see them take more risks with the sequels.

This is clearly the best video sequel that the mouse house has produced to date. Hakuna matata!

Quite inventive for a Disney straight-to-video release . . .
03/29/04
A clever retelling of a classic tale from skewed p.o.v. of supporting characters.

Top CriticThis may become known as the gold standard for straight-to-video cartoon releases.

Most Disney straight-to-video sequels are bunk, but here is an entertaining exception.

While the young cubs will delight in The Lion King 1-1/2, there is also a treasure trove of pop culture references and dialogue-asides especially for adult film buffs.
02/10/04
This is quite possibly the studio's most banal direct-to-video sequel to date

pathetic... pointless
02/07/04
Fart gags, belch jokes, and slug-eating contests abound. To me, the filmmakers have dishonored the memory of a treasured classic.
