Leo the Lion

This is the worst movie I have ever seen. It is truly insufferable and no child should be allowed to watch it. I knew it would be terrible based upon the title card; in fact, I watched it because I enjoy watching bad movies. However, this movie is not enjoyable. SO much is wrong with this film that I find it offensive.

It is clearly taking advantage of the success of movies such as The Lion King, Madagascar, and the Jungle Book. But unlike these, Leo the Lion has no plot, no ingenuity, and no quality. The animation is sickening with the 'vegetarian' lion, Leo, that looks anorexic and vague, unintelligible settings. I have no idea where this movie takes place, other than the 'jungle' and the heart of the jungle that they begin to search for after Leo's mother falls off of a waterfall whilst chasing a zebra. None of the characters are given any context or character development, such as the inexplicably introduced Uncle Lope. I don't know why he is a thing, but his character should not exist in any movie, anywhere. The narrative of Leo the Lion switches from Leo's point of view to Uncle Lope's about 3 times within 1 minute.

I hate everything about this movie, but one of the most atrocious aspects is the "music" that is sung by the creatures of the jungle. The song performed by Maximus Elephante (great name) is a blatant rip off of Scar's song "Be Prepared" in The Lion King. The song about friendship sung by Leo, Uncle Lope, and the band of cubs they collect from various parts of the jungle is trash at best. The pacing, lyrics, and voices are so off that it is painful.

I do not recommend this movie to anyone. Stay far away from Leo the Lion.

What did I just watch?!? This is terrible animation with propaganda throughout this whole thing.

What a load of rubbish. Not even worth anyone's time

Leo the Lion is about a vegetarian lion who leaves his pride to find the heart of the jungle where he is said to be free from all harm that comes and he goes on an adventure with his friends, where throughout the movie he meets animal friends along the way.

This movie is just plain awful with parts that make no sense. Ripped off the Lion King and Madagascar multiple times.

There's also moments where it plainly tries to make the movie longer to fit the 1+ hour time limit. Clips are reused, clips are slowed down for no reason, etc.

I feel like a lot of characters are very dull. Most characters don't have background stories or a personality that helps contribute to the plot of the film, making them hard to sympathize and connect with the characters.

Less than ten minutes in as Savanna gives birth, you can hear her moaning for a couple minutes straight. It was extremely painful to watch. (And in a kids movie? Seriously?)

Even if they wanted to, lions can't be vegetarian. There's no reason other than "he just doesn't prefer meat" that explains why Leo is a vegetarian. The entire movie just feels extremely confusing for me.

The animation is quite bad, as the lip syncing is horrible and there's some frames where you can see some sort of cloud thing disappear from the top of Savanna's head. But the animation isn't as bad as Joshua and the Promised Land's animation.

I feel like this movie is worse than Joshua and the Promised Land since I feel like Joshua and the Promised Land actually had a good concept with Joshua travelling back in time to learn about courage and history, but it was the animation that made it a terrible movie.

This movie makes the Emoji Movie look like an actually good movie. Don't waste your time on this movie.

Its So Lit It Makes Empire Strikes Back Look Like Trash
