Leon's spirit animal though is the lion, and one day, it just manifests itself to violently punish those who have tormented Leon. But is this the whole truth, or is there something even more sinister at work?<p> <p>If horror with maybe a dash of fantasy is your thing, then <b>Lion</b> is most definitely a film for you: While on one hand the film's violent enough to please every self-respecting horror fan, its story - from the "deep in the woods" setting to the manifestation of the spirit animal - also has something fairy tale-like to it, a certain sense of wonder not usually found in genre flicks. But an assured directorial hand brings this blend to life, and also sees to it that the anti-domestic violence message isn't brought home with the swing of a sledgehammer but delivered in a sensible way.<p>Totally worth a look! </td> <td width="4" rowspan="2"></td> <td width="100" rowspan="2" background="../stylepix/squareright.gif" valign="top">  </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="592" valign="top">  <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> currentyear = "2018"; </SCRIPT> <SCRIPT language="JavaScript" src="../scripts/endcredits.js"></SCRIPT> <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> dosworsdonn(); </SCRIPT> </td> </tr> </table> </div> </body>
