From the moment the light rose on screen, and the animals begin singing “The Circle Of Life,” I knew this film would be something special. Disney’s The Lion King 2019 movie will be adored by generations of people– those who have been enamored with the 1994 animated film since it debuted, and a slew of others who are newcomers to the tale.
The craftsmanship in 2019’s The Lion King is breathtaking. The CGI looks so hyperrealistic that the audience will feel like they’re in Subsaharan Africa right along with the animals. Though there is some sameness when it comes to the lions’ coloring –the distinctive voices of James Earl Jones’ Mufasa, Donald Glover’s adult Simba, and Chiwetel Ejiofor’s sinister Scar are enough to distinguish them easily.
Admittedly, I was a bit miffed when I learned that Jeremy Irons was not going to return to voice Scar for this version of the film. However, Ejiofor’s Scar was almost more terrifying. He lacked the sarcasm of the original villain and instead is just utterly frightening. For parents–the realism of the lions–especially when it comes to Mufasa’s death scene in the stampede , and the menacing look of the hyenas might send some smaller children into a tizzy. My heart raced more than once.
