Good but not as good as the original animation

Rating: 7/10 (21 July 2019)

Disney have done a good job with the live action CGI remake. However, this film struggles to capture some of the feelings and emotions of the original cartoon animation. In particular, the facial expressions of the animals suffer. In their defence though, animation will always have more creative freedom than a live action film, a brilliant example of this is Spider-Man Into the Spiderverse. Elsewhere, the score was good not really much different to the original, perhaps lacking courage to try something different for fear of the fans of the original complaining.
