The Lion King 4K 2019 Review
Residents of the pride welcome the new Prince Simba - the newborn son of the lion king Mufasa. It seems that the entire savannah is rejoicing in the newborn lion cub, only the brother of Mufasa, Scar, will not at all accept the thought that he will not become king. Then Uncle Simba, battered by life, decides to unite with the company of hyenas in order to get rid of the king and the young candidate for the throne.

There are more and more Hollywood remakes of beloved Disney classics every year, and when it comes to rethinking The Lion King 4K, it was just a matter of time. Among the other cartoons, the story of Simba is something like a sacred cow, which must be treated with the utmost care, otherwise you can bring down the wrath of a righteous people. But now the moment has come, it was decided to use the most advanced technologies in animation, thus making the savannah and its inhabitants as realistic as possible. It’s not without imagination that characters’s voiced, calling Beyoncé to the project is not a joke to you, add to Queen Donald Glover, Seth Rogen and James Earl Jones (Mufasa’s voice in the original cartoon) - you’ll get a completely explosive mixture. All this was reinsured by John Favreau, on whose account there are zero failures in the big movie.

As a result, as expected, the film turned out to be impeccably beautiful. A fabulous pride literally came to life before our eyes, and this is truly an incredible sight. Unfortunately, the advantages of adaptation end here. The biggest advantage of the picture is the realistic CGI characters, they became a stick in the remake wheel. As we know, with human facial expressions in animals (if it’s not a smiley dog) it’s hard, you can count the emotions of characters only by voice, so you can’t associate yourself with the main characters as before. By and large, the whole action is more like a program about wild animals on the Discovery channel, which is drunk by your drunk friends. From this, the most dramatic moments tearing apart the heart in the 1994 cartoon do not work at all in the new version.

Problems to the new “Lion King UHD” are added by the fact that this is an almost step-by-step adaptation of the cartoon. Of course, in this case, the creators found themselves in a difficult situation, because on the example of several Disney remakes we made sure that with jokes nostalgia is bad - just that, and the viewer can freak out. In general, Disney loves to secure its projects as much as possible, but because of the fear of taking risks, the product most often turns out to be fresh and completely useless, as it was recently with Dumbo, and now with King Lion. The studio is clearly not going to learn from its mistakes, so the forecasts for the upcoming reincarnation of cartoons are not the most comforting.

Despite all these shortcomings, it’s worth watching the “Lion King Ultra HD”, the main thing is not to raise your expectations and enjoy the beautiful picture as much as possible. And if possible, try to avoid sessions in Russian, because for some reason we decided to release a copy with dubbed songs and finally angered the gods. Forgive their souls Beyoncé and Donald Glover (but we will not forgive).
