I would love to meet the people that made this movie, because maybe some of their absolute genius will rub off on me. It was a work of art, DaVinci is shaking. I love this movie, I was wondering if people agree. It gave me so many new experiences like ligma and I became Winston. Hit or miss. It was a hit. I stan

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.

This 'move' (if you can even call it that) is the worst! It makes the emoji movie look like toy story! It's animation is BAD! It's dialog is BAD! Everything about it is BAD! DO NOT WATCH IT!

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.

Its So Lit It Makes Empire Strikes Back Look Like Trash

Poor animation, storyline and script like it's written by a 9 year old. One of those children's films that as an adult is painful to sit through.

Leo, lovely Leo has expanded my ideas and broadened my perspective about life. I'm troubled by Disney's "the Lion King" complete theft of Leo's revolutionary ideas. Have they no shame?? On the troublesome road to true love, this movie reminded me that couples come in all colors and species...if that ungrateful elephant hadn't entered the scene(the movie's one flaw) I would've taken Leo in seconds. I look for him in every passerby, I listen for him in every voice. My darling Leo puts the avengers to shame, showing that the real way to save the world is to deliver mutant babies and eat your veggies. I give my blessing to his creators, as this animation has become scripture to me. The cartoon made me cry-I couldn't blink, afraid I would miss even one second. This movie prompts miracles-it cured my irritable bowel syndrome, for which I am internally and eternally indebted to love-inducing Leo. Love is real, dear readers. Find your Leo.

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

Everything about this film is a big old piece of trash! However there are some parts that are decent/mediocre at best: Daniel Armestrong's voice is great for a very friendly lion. Matthew Merecer may not be the best choice for an African bull elephant, but it's decent for a very large & very powerful beast. The music score is decent (it may be repetative but it's not annoying). The characters movements are mediocre. & the voice acting & the voice cast is decent enough.

The animation quality is pretty bad & ugly (not much depth, almost no texture or detail at all, character models went from bad to decent). The voice acting is poorly directed at times. This plot/story is totally ripping off the lion king & the land before time (The story is lazy & pointless). The lips are not in sync with the dialogue & does not match. The dialogue is weak, lazy, annoying, & a little too much rhyming. The songs went from mediocre to dreadful (the lyrics went from decent to weak & stupid. The singing is more like "talk-singing"). There are moments where the scenes are stretched out, & it's annoying. Lions are NOT vegitarians! They are carnivores/predators, But that does not mean that they are bad guys! People should never hate carnivores. As carnivores, their digestive system is inefficent. This movie has no depth, no point, no layers, & no emotion. Just because that it's emotionless, that does'nt mean that the characters show facial expressions or act in a variety of feelings. They do. But again: the characters/animation/faces are ugly looking & garbage. Here are 5 words to describe this film: Mindless, lazy, weak, emotionless, pointless.

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

Saw this back in February 2018.

While perhaps it isn't horrendous as other CGI failures, Leo still manages to make me wanna blind myself by traveling to whatever place is going through an eclipse right now.

I was given Insomnia and a permanent migraine from this Movie. That being said you should watch it

I'm not writing much as this movie isn't worth my time, but it is absolutely terrible. Everything is terrible, bad jokes, horrid animation, and terrible songs. DO NOT WATCH THIS.

I would first like to say that I couldn't finish this movie it was too heart breaking. The animations made me want to cry. and the fact you could literally see leo's ribs was just scary. Also lions can't be vegetarian. Don't watch this movie it is atrocious.

Since the times of classical Greece, art has persevered and been cherished by the populace. Art is what brought people together. Yet, back then art was expressed in poetry, painting, and sculpting. Yet, perhaps, the greatest work, nay, subject of art is a cinema piece. The great playwrights would heel to their knees as their head gains sweat and fear. Fear we as humans shall not produce a greater equivalent to the word masterpiece. I'm not just enthusiastic to be able to review this film but, I am honored. The name of such a divine item, a holy grail of entertainment, is Leo the Lion. The plot is riddled with twists and turns. It's bold flair captures and captivated the mind of the viewer, leaving him dazed and starry eyed. The movie is so far ahead of its time that there are literally no words in the dictionary great enough to describe this. I'm getting teary eyed just trying to review it. Movies for generations will attempt to copy and paste the recipe of Leo the Lion. Nothing will ever be as great as this. Unless there's a sequel.....
