Mufasa comes from the Oscar winner behind the moody, R-rated masterpiece 'Moonlight', yet struggles to revolutionize within Disney's live-action money-making machine.
Despite Jenkins' track record, the contrived script introduces political and sexual frustrations among lions, leaving plot points poorly justified amidst stunning visuals.
This addition to 'The Lion King' franchise rehashes familiar elements without the original's charm, offering a busy narrative lacking in actual exploration and depth.
While 'Mufasa' boasts a great visual style, it remains a disappointment, plagued by a convoluted script and an overabundance of characters.
