Mufasa: The Lion King (2024)
In a time when Disney has been struggling to recapture its golden era magic, Mufasa: The Lion King stands out as a welcome surprise. Directed by Barry Jenkins, this prequel to the 2019 photorealistic remake offers a refreshing take, not just rehashing the familiar story, but expanding the mythology in a way that feels both purposeful and entertaining.
Snow White (2025)
Disney's latest live-action remake, Snow White (2025), is a film that should have been a celebration of both timeless fantasy and modern storytelling. However, what could have been a nostalgic yet refreshing adaptation quickly becomes a disjointed, tone-deaf experience-one that misses the mark on almost every level.
Umami (2025)
Disney's Umami is one of those films that surprises you in the best way. It's not your typical Disney fare, but it's absolutely worth the watch. Directed by Emre Sahin, Umami blends food, culture, and personal growth into a cinematic experience that's as beautiful as it is heartfelt.
