It is a mixture of traditional animation and computer generated elements. The animation, for the most part, is slightly better than most Disney sequels. Unfortunately, the story is thin and when the quick comedy sketches pass, too much time is spent waiting for the humor to shine again. However, in a film that runs less than an hour and twenty minutes, you would expect little downtime.

Interjected with the MST3K type commentary and full of familiar scenes with new elements, there are parts of the story that are very clever. When The Lion King 1 ½ works, it is quite funny. In fact, Timon and Pumbaa seem to be the heroes of the story, a fact never touched upon in the original. Familiar sequences from the original classic are used from a different perspective and it is learned that Timon and Pumbaa were actually there all the time, doing more than we had ever given them credit for. Their story is intertwined with the original The Lion King tale and some of the results are hilarious.

Timon and Pumbaa search for their Hakuna Matata and it is on this journey that the movie works best. It is on this quest he meets the gaseous Pumbaa and a friendship is born. This scene also provides the origins of Hakuna Matata it is what Timon is searching for and must find to finally be satisfied. Unfortunately, Timon (not too bright) takes things a bit too literally and begins actually looking for things that are farther away than what he can see. In one of the truly funny scenes, Rafiki tells Timon to `Look beyond what you can see'. As Timon sets out, he meets up with the existential primate Rafiki. After a cataclysmic mistake during lookout duty, Timon decides to leave his past behind and journey to find a new home. Timon, however, dreams of a world beyond the fear. Concerned with safety and a need to hide from the vicious hyenas, the meerkats must constantly dig and hide in order to survive. The only two allies he has in the troupe are his mother (Julie Kavner, The Simpsons) and his Uncle Max (Jerry Stiller, Seinfeld). Timon is somewhat of an outcast, the member of the colony who can never seem to do anything right. What begins is the tale of Timon, a troubled meerkat. In true Mystery Science Theater 3000 fashion, we see Timon (voice by Nathan Lane) and Pumbaa rewind the tale of The Lion King to a point before the familiar story. It works as often as it does (which is still only about equal to as much as it doesn't work) mainly due to its simple premise. Ah-ohhhh.Īs far as Disney sequels go, The Lion King 1 ½ is definitely above average. Pumbaa: Hakuna Matata - It means "no worries".
Timon: HEY! How can you dance at a time like this? I'm DYIN' here!. Timon: He had the perfect name for it, too. Pumbaa: I'll just whip up a little something. Timon: The monkey was right! We found it! The perfect life!
