I got some sugar from my wife for bringing the family to this movie.

I honestly think they need to get over this realistic cgi thing . GIVE ME ANIMATION and COLOR. Vibrant color schemes with cute characters !!

Absolutely an amazing movie with a great cast and a beautifully executed story. The soundtrack was cleverly crafted and it’s almost made to be a sing along. Definitely a must see for adults and the kids. 10/10 would recommend!!!

I loved everything about it. It was very heartwarming and really helped us to see Scar. He was so innocent. His father really ruined him.

I went in not expecting much. but was pleasant surprised. Great story. We really enjoyed it!

I always wanted a brotha… it was a good time, definitely better animation this time around. Not an amazing movie but still decent especially for younger audiences

Same old story

Lin Manuel Miranda did so well with the music in this movie

Fantastic movie! Incredible animation. Family bonds, extreme challenges. Great ending.

This is an amazingly lifelike back story w all the wonderful and emotional feels to go w it...def a must see

It was okay

I will always love the cartoon version the live movies do not do it for me

Kid friendly movie that had you on the edge of your seat at times. other times they started singing. Always nice to see the back story of Mufasa and Scar. Great movie to watch with family.

The cast, the songs, the animation everything was just pure perfection😁😁😁

Watching the new Lion King movie in 3D was an unforgettable experience! It was incredible to see Mufasa's backstory, adding so much depth to a character I’ve always adored. The roars of the lions felt like they were right there in the theater with me—so powerful and real! The animation was breathtaking, making the African savannah come alive in such a magical way. It was like being transported into the story, and I felt a real connection to the characters and their journey. Whether you’re a fan of the original or new to the tale, this film is a must-see. It truly felt like I was part of their world!

Love It Better Than The 1st One

It was AMAZING!!! The kids were kids were kicking their feet because of how excited they were, Good decision for us to even take the grandparents!!

loved the backgrounds of every scene and the characters <3

Lots of hype about this film, was expecting the same grab and emotion as The Lion King. We were disappointed.

pretty solid

Worst movie I’ve ever seen in my life

Absolutely amazing

My childhood favorite carton. But part 1 is still the best for me.

Great movie! Great storyline!

it is a family musical with the lion King twist.

Telling a story about Mufasa and Scar became brothers.

Great movie

The movie is so good and show back story of Mufasa and I love that. It’s a must watch! Like guys don’t run to watch this movie. Run!

It was a very beautiful movie ! A piece of art !

A great see , must. Watch it in the biggest theatre you can

It was really good

Really a good movie. Humor was funny and it didn’t feel pushed. It fit into the storyline well

Too many songs and the story is very similar to previous one. Also this one looked rushed. Fast moving scenes and dialogues fit in less than 2 hours.

Songs were boring

This was really good

Visuals were great. Story and music was so so

My family all loved it! Could have had better songs. My families favorite was the Bye song, but I thought it was weird coming from a king.

I watched Mufasa The Lion King and the movie was fantastic and realistic filled with important messages and I was in love with the movie and I loved the movie so much

Beautifully made. Would rewatch.

Loved it!

I am in awe. See this in 3D and on an IMAX.

The music is kinda lacking compared to the original but the story was amazing really enjoyed it would definitely watch again

Good back story

It was such a feel good movie. I highly recommend.

I love the version of real animals.

The movie definitely answers how things came about with lion king and why things played out the way they did

so, so, beautifully done.

Ignore the critics. Go see it!

It as to much signing made the movie boring my kids didn’t like the signing to much .

Wow! I love this film 10/10 this is the story that needed to be told a long time ago 🦁. the new music was catchy. finally after 30 years since the original film everything make sense of how Scar became Scar and why he was so jealous of Mufasa and how Mufasa became the king 👑 of Milele and how Pride Rock became his home. Wow! Incredible 🔥 after watching Sonic 3 this is the next film to check out! 😊

It was an exciting prospect to see what someone like Jenkins would do while up against the Hollywood machine, but it unfortunately feels like the machine won this bout, if not by knockout, then definitely on points.

After having been made and remade for the screen and converted into a long-running hit Broadway show, it might have seemed like “The Lion King” was a played-out property. “Mufasa,” under Jenkins’ poised and creative direction, proves there is still plenty of life left in the long-reining “King.”
