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'sfamiliar 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

- This one will surprise you...
Disney has an unfortunate reputation for releasing bad direct-to-DVD sequels, and on very rare occasions does a decent one come up. The Lion King 1 1/2 is one of those rare movies.
Timon is a Meerkat who dreams of more than digging tunnels and being scared of the hyenas all his life, unlike the other Meerkats in his clan. When Timon's daydreaming endangers his kin, he shamefully leaves, realizing that he does not belong there, only to meet and befriend a gassy, naive, and friendly warthog named ... Read More

- Hakuna Matata! This direct-to-DVD release is far better than direct-to-DVD quality!
Sitting down in a private theater to watch the original "The Lion King", Timon the wisecracking meerkat and Pumbaa the gassy warthog are our Mystery Science Theater 3000 silhouette-style hosts for "Lion King 1 1/2", a Disney direct-to-video sequel done so well it makes everyone who says all Disney direct-to-DVD is garbage look completely ignorant of what they're talking about. The film beautifully tells the story within the story. It's all about Timon and Pumbaa this time around, especially Timon, as ... Read More
