A great story turned awful

Rating: 2/10 (16 April 2020)

The Lion King is a very emotional story, so the best direction Disney and Jon Favreau thought to take it would be live action animals which cannot show ANY emotion on their faces. It is a basic destruction of character. I laughed out loud when Scar said he saw the fear in Mustafa's eyes when he killed him, because how can you see ANYTHING in those eyes other than pupils and the other mandatory things to seeing. The stage play showed more emotion in their eyes and I was sitting as a distance so that I couldn't even see their eyes
