This film is a spin-of of "Lion King", focused on the characters of Timon and Pumbaa. Directed by Bradley Raymond, with a script by Tom Rogers, the film features the voices of Nathan Lane, Ernie Sabella, Whoopi Goldberg and Julie Kavner.When I saw this movie by its cover I thought it would, of course, a continuation of the second film. When I realized it was a spin-of based on friends of Simba, I was a bit disappointed. When I realized it was a bad movie, I was really upset. The director tried to evade the rules and do something that rarely occurs in animated films: a spin-of that elapses before the initial movie events. Its a high- risk maneuver and Raymond was unable to give it the original magic, of the first film. They cannot even be compared.This film is the following of a policy that Disney has tried to do in recent years: pick up a highly popular secondary character, from a movie that already exists (highly lucrative, of course) and give this character a whole film through a spin-of. This is just to make money at the expense of a success already achieved. Many of these films get similar popularity but much lower quality. So it is here.The script is not interesting, the story is quite boring. This pair of friends, who once entertained us, didn't bring anything new. The voice actors did a good job, but its one of the few pristine features of the film, along with the design, animation and cinematography. It has some moments of humor but it's not funny, and the jokes didn't stay in in our memory. Basically, Disney should learn to understand that there are characters that were made to be funny and secondary, never to be protagonists.

it is a great movie amazing i like this movie a lot make this movie number 2 of all the lion kings because the first lion king is number 1 but this is still a really good movie i like this movie a lot i never saw a movie this good before i like this movie so much i never saw a Disney movie this good before i like this a lot and so will you it is one funny movie it is a hoot it is the bomb i never saw a movie this good before this is one good movie that the whole family to enjoy i like this movie a lot this movie so much this is one cool movie this movie is the bomb the worse lion king is the second one it was horrible but this one s great i like this movie a lot this is one cool movie i never saw a movie this goofed before this is one good movie this is a great movie i like this more than any movie this i one cool movie i like this movie so so much this is one cool movie

I really like the first lion king it was pretty well darn and quit funny and sad the 2nd one was okay it did had a few problems but I like this movie its not my favorite Disney movie but its quit good to watch the story is about Timon and Pumbaa who also appear in the short series called Timon and Pumbaa now are the main characters of this film the story is about Timon telling people about his life and not being happy and wanting to have a new life he tells his mum what he is looking for and sits off on his adventure and where Pumbaa and both make a became best friends and said that friends stick to gather in the end the story is very well done will its not as good as the first 2 but quit well done story is pretty good but its not as good as some other 2000 Disney films from the early 2000s but its not that bad its better then Inspector gadget 2 that awful direct video but all in all its fun for people who love direct films but if you are true lion king fan you might be a bit upset. Its not a masterpiece and does not compared with the first 2 films and is mostly is a bit more entertaining for kids than adults but some adults might like it I give this movie a 7 out of 10.

There really wasn't much of a story in this film. It loosely based itself off the events in the first Lion King movie. It is supposed to be how Timon and Pumbaa met via their aloneness. But there isn't much more than that.It mixes some scenes from the original, then it ab-libs about how this movie changed them a little bit. But still, is that it? I was hoping for something a little more. Instead, all I have to show for it is an empty plot with little explanation.I guess if you wanted to see other meerkats in the Lion King universe, then this is it. But other than that, it does little justice for the animators. Disney really should stop these direct-to-video productions. It really was quite boring and could have used Jason Statham. "D-"
