About This Movie
Strong as a Lion is this curious little gem from 2003 that blends adventure, drama, and family themes into a story about childhood imagination. It revolves around Simon, a nine-year-old navigating the rough waters of school life with the added twist of having a lion as his companion—an element that gives it a unique charm. The pacing feels a bit uneven at times, but that lends itself to the dreamlike quality of Simon's world. You see, the film delves into themes of courage and friendship, and that lion is a constant reminder of the strength we all wish we had against our bullies. The practical effects used for the lion are surprisingly engaging, which adds a layer of authenticity to Simon's imagination, making it a distinctive watch in the family adventure genre.
