WOOPIE SHOULDA BEEN SHENZI...

Rating: 1/10 (6 April 2020)

Finally saw this over rated re-make. With the exception of Mufasa, John Oliver, Seth Rogen, Billy Eichner, and Amy Sedaris, this attempt at re-making a classic was horribly miscast. Never heard of most of the "actors", probably because they aren't any good. That kid who played little Simba should never have sung because he can't. Nala's voice was too ghetto sounding. If James Earl Jones was Mufasa again, Woopie Goldberg should have been Shenzi and Jeremy Iron's should have been Scar. The one star rating is for at the very least getting Timon and Pumba right. Do your kids and family a favor and only show them the classic original.
