Is it just my, or is this the funniest joke ever played? Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are...In Africa? I almost died laughing, but only at the jokes IN the film, but mostly at the joke that IS the film. Not following me? Ok, try this: The Lion King (a fine film) is the Disney version of 'Hamlet', right? Ok, then Timon and Pumba are obviously the Disney version of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern. Which makes this film HYSTERICAL! Anyone who has wated 'Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead' will really get a kick out of this intelligent flick. Needless to say, I loved it. But not just for the jokes and songs (which were pretty good) but for the 'Inside' joke that this film IS the joke. Hats off to Disney...you were deffinitely smarter than your audience this time out. Walt would have loved it.
