Beautiful...But just a simple copy

Rating: 6/10 (10 August 2019)

I want to rate this film an 8 so badly. The art and CGI in this film is beyond beautiful, accompanying a beautiful soundtrack that is so pleasing to the ears. This film brought out many emotions out of myself and I definitely enjoyed it.
Unfortunately, all the emotions I was feeling, came from the features that were already present in the previous film. The film brings nothing new to their film and tries to be as similar to the original as possible. This is not necessarily wrong, since its a remake, audiences criticize filmmakers when they change things up from their childhood films. But it seems like when I watched this movie, everything I was loving about it, was not creatively made by them.
The score, for example, is beautiful and toys with my emotions the most, but was originally produced for the original film. This does not mean that I believe that they should've developed their own totally new soundtrack, but it's not like I can applaud John Favreau and his team for this either.
Favreau did an absolute amazing job with making sure his film had the top-notch CGI and I can applaud him on THIS. All I can say is that it was well-crafted, but has nothing new brought out except its CGI.
