- David “DC” Bolling @ DC’s Take
- Excerpt: Mufasa: The Lion King may have improved in areas like visuals and offered some originality for a prequel/sequel. However, the film ultimately falls short of its storyline despite Barry Jenkins’ talents.
- Laura Clifford @ Reeling Reviews
- Excerpt: The animals look startlingly alive (although it’s a lot weirder to see ‘real’ animals break out in song than animated ones), the ‘dead eye’ problem mostly resolved….a step up from its predessor…
- [New] | Mark Hobin @ Fast Film Reviews
- Excerpt: As the animals have become even more realistic, they’ve also grown more lifeless.
- [New] | Aaron Neuwirth @ We Live Entertainment
- Excerpt: Could the Moonlight director find new avenues to explore that would better exemplify what’s possible with these digital recreations of hand-drawn hits? The good news is that Mufasa, warthogs and all, is a solid step in the right direction.
- Sebastian Zavala @ MeGustaElCine.com [Spanish]
- Excerpt: Many of the flaws of its predecessor have been corrected in “Mufasa: The Lion King,” and while the film isn’t necessarily a masterpiece, it’s at least superior to something like “Moana 2.”
