Mufasa: The Lion King Twitter Reviews
Here are the top 8 reviews by fans on Mufasa: The Lion King:
“#Mufasa is a real mixed bag. When it works, it really works. Mufasa's rise can elicit big emotions. But Scar's fall felt unearned. His entire personality changes w/ 1 scene. There are too many rushed plotlines. The songs were all forgettable. Moments of greatness. Many issues.”

“#Mufasa benefits greatly by not being a remake of a better film. A solid story, great music, and technically impressive, all left disjointed by admittedly improved, but still not great, expressionless faces and infuriating Timon and Pumbaa inserts that kill momentum dead.”
“As an AVID lion king fan Mufasa was a 15/10. So many fantastic references; nostalgia was and I sobbed the entire time. Even the expressions were SO good oh my god.”
“The visuals, the music, the heart - Mufasa: The Lion King does not disappoint. Read
@momof3boysj's spoiler-free review for all the details before you head to the theatres! #Mufasa #MufasaTheLionKing.”
“#Mufasa is wildly entertaining for all ages and absolutely proves to be quite the successor from the 2019 live-action film. It’s without a doubt a brilliant, compelling, and emotional film. #JamesEarlJones would truly be proud! #TheLionKing.”
“#Mufasa is a triumph! Barry Jenkins's prequel to the Disney classic is a moving story of family, brotherhood and destiny that pulls on the heartstrings with the perfect amount of nostalgia. Brought to life by astonishing animation and some good original songs from Lin-Manuel Miranda, it’s a more than a worthy prequel that fans will cherish.”

“I had to think about MUFASA: THE LION KING, as it does have quite a lot of flaws in its storytelling and overall creativity/originality. Yet, when I think back to the 2019 live-action movie, this is *so* much better to me.”

“Mufasa- I don't know how the 2019 fans will feel but certainly didn't win me over. Even visually unimpressive with ugly constant fish eye shots and terrible white lions. The story is a snooze with little to entertain kids. Winks to the original are groaning. Songs are fine but don't fit. NFM.”
