Mufasa: The Lion King

CriticsCritics: 56
AudienceAudience: 6.8

A cub is swept away from his family and left to navigate the wilderness alone. He finds shelter with a young lion raised in a royal family, and the two grow close before danger forces them and their companions on a journey in search of a new home and their place in the world.

My take

You’ll likely enjoy this family adventure if you like vivid animated worlds, emotional friendships, and familiar musical storytelling; Not for you if you want a highly surprising plot or songs that linger afterward.
