Walt Disney released a photorealistic CGI remake of The Lion King in 2019 that stirred roaring debates among critics and audiences. Though the audience was sold by the movie's nostalgic focus and, of course, James Earl Jones’s stunning voice as Mufasa, the critics railed at the overly realistic approach that robbed the characters of their emotional quotient, leaving behind a visually impressive but emotionally hollow experience.
