PROBLEM: The Lion King has to be the best Disney movie ever made. Many can argue that there are a few other top contenders that may bump them from the #1 seat, but what movie elicits a more emotional reaction to a character's death, a bigger connection with the characters with flawless character development, and a feeling of grand awe watching an animal climb a rock in the final scene? I can't think of another movie that surrounds a cast of animals more moving than The Lion King.\n\nThis is the kind of expectations I had when walking into the theater. I was about to see my favorite movie of all time come to life with a live singing cast, breathtaking set design, and artistic revamping for the stage. Here I was, at 25, giddily awaiting the curtain to be drawn, in the same way I was practically jumping up and down in my seat almost 17 years ago, excited to watch the original.\n\nWhen the opening number began with (a female) Rafiki it really set the tone for a great production to follow. Her powerful vocals were chilling, and she is easily the best performer out of the entire cast. It must be difficult to follow such a strong beginning number as I found myself bored during the first few scenes. The most memorable songs were towards the middle to the end and almost aways featured Rafiki who mostly sang in Swahili in smooth harmony with other female vocals.\n\nThe musical stayed mostly true to the movie, but to provide the fluidity of performing a movie on stage, the writer added a few more songs and situations to help the story along. I actually felt there are enough people who knew the storyline already that obviates the song additions. It made some parts unnecessarily long and undermined the powerful emotions that should have been associated with more of the pivotal scenes in the musical.\n\nOverall, the cast is talented and worked mostly well with each other. The dancers had plenty of energy and conveyed the story well through dance and song. I would like to see a different company perform this sometime later, though. Something about watching this show in Vegas made it feel like it was lacking in the grandeur and honest emotions I was craving for such a powerful story. 3.5 stars, but awarding 4 stars.

PROBLEM: Used our holiday buffet pass here for breakfast ($70/pp buffet pass).\n\nThe holiday breakfast was only $18.99 ... the holiday buffet pass sucks. Do not get the buffet pass during the holidays.\n\nI like that you can place your drink orders with the cashier. The orange juice tasted really good ... so much better than paris buffet's orange juice. \n\nThe view of the pool/water fountain made breakfast so much more enjoyable. \n\nThe eggs benedict tasted the same as bellagio eggs benedict.\nThe donuts/muffins came out of a pink box....\nThe crepe station was yummy\nWaffles were yummy.. crunchy on outside and soft on the inside.\n\nHad the usual breakfast items: muffins, donuts, cereal, salmon, vegetables, salad bar, fruits, sausages, omelette station, and its worth the breakfast price. (Worth it just without the buffet pass) i wouldn't pay more than $18.99/pp here. \n\nThe staff was super quick and attentive. Great breakfast ambiance.

PROBLEM: What a great hidden gem. Off the strip, non-gaming property. For the money it's a great deal and is positioned at the best part of the strip, less than a 10 minute walk from the hotel.\n\nWe stayed in an awesome king bed Princess Suite (1,150 +/= s.f.). Wow! It even has a sweet 7x10 foot foyer in the unit. We came here to celebrate my birthday and they outdid themselves - there are perks to being a regular. :) Good job Derek!\n\nThe bathroom is huge and the jets powerful in the whirlpool tub that is amply large for two people. The separate shower is also great and the rainfall shower head is awesome!\n\nWe arrived on a Thursday and departed on a Sunday and the weather was already turning a bit cooler (it was in the low 70s on Friday, mid 70s on Saturday) since it was mid-October.\n\nThe food at Kil@wat (only breakfast & lunch - dinner is not served but you can get room service until 11 pm) is excellent and room service was prompt and service exceptional. The service is outstanding in Kil@wat and Stir Lounge. Thumbs up for Claudia and Josh. Wonderfully welcoming!\n\nStir Lounge has great appetizers and discount drinks/wine on the happy hour menu and a great place to start and end nights.\n\nThey have complimentary valet parking, you just need to tip. And please do tip. These valets do not make a lot of money and just because it is complimentary to you doesn't mean those that are conveniencing your stay are getting paid fairly. We should be as good as customers as they are in providing a service. (Or treat others as you would wish to be treated.)\n\nAll in all I loved my stay at the Platinum Hotel and will of course be back on our next Vegas trip!
