Lion King II is darker and scarier but lacks the humor and music from the first film.
Everybody knows the first film but this one is a bit under the radar. I don't know why since it works well and follows the same pattern as the first one. Good versus Evil with strong sidekicks and villains. I especially like the weird offspring of the evil Scar.
The film contains all the ingredients of a likable Disney film - humor (less than in the first, though), good vs evil and a love story.
All in all, it's a good sequel and should get more attention that it has been receiving. 7/10. If your kids liked the first one they will surely enjoy this one as well.
