It may be almost 30 years old, but the animated Disney classic is just as fresh and enthralling as ever. Matthew Broderick and Jeremy Irons are among the vocal cast breathing life into the story of Simba, a young lion prince who, following the murder of his father, must find a way to reclaim the throne from his evil uncle, Scar. ★★★★★
