I
would
tell
all
my
friends
to
go
and
watch
Mufasa:
The
Lion
King,
recommends
Krishiv
Dedhia,
7.
Krishiv:
Dad,
wasn’t
Mufasa:
The
Lion
King
so
cool?
Like,
I
didn’t
think
it
would
be
THAT
good,
but
it
was
amazing!
Dad:
It
really
was.
I
loved
how
they
told
the
story
of
Mufasa’s
journey.
It
was
good,
right?
What
did
you
like
the
most?
Krishiv:
Umm…everything?
Mostly
when
Mufasa
was
a
cub,
and
he
got
separated
from
his
family
which
was
sad.
He
still
tried
to
be
brave
and
listened
to
what
his
mummy
and
daddy
said.
It
was
kind
of
like
Simba
in
the
other
Lion
King.
Dad:
Unlike
you,
who
doesn’t
listen
to
his
mumma
or
daddy.
Krishiv:
I
do.
Okay,
I
agree.
I
don’t
but
that’s
only
some
times
(wicked
laugh).
Dad:
They
even
showed
that
even
great
leaders
start
small
and
face
challenges.
Remember
how
Mufasa
had
to
figure
out
what
it
meant
to
be
a
king?
Krishiv:
Yeah!
And
Rafiki
kept
saying
all
those
funny
things,
like,
‘The
stars
tell
us
more
than
we
know.’
What
did
that
mean?
Dad:
I
think
he
was
teaching
Mufasa
to
look
beyond
what’s
right
in
front
of
him.
To
trust
his
instincts
and
listen
to
the
wisdom
of
others.
Krishiv:
Ohhh,
like
when
he
saved
the
animals
during
that
big
storm!
That
part
was
CRAZY!
I
thought
he
was
going
to
get
hurt,
but
nope!
He
was
like,
‘ROARRR,’
and
all
the
animals
listened!
Dad:
Mufasa
really
showed
courage
there.
And
the
animation
in
that
scene,
wow!
The
colours,
the
sound
of
the
rain
it
felt
so
real.
Krishiv:
I
love
all
the
songs!
The
music
was
like
like,
DUN
DUN
DUN!
I
couldn’t
sit
still
in
my
seat
when
they
started
singing.
I
felt
like
dancing
along
with
all
the
animals.
I
liked
the
one
where
Mufasa
and
Scar
were
playing
together
before
they
started
fighting.
Dad:
That
was
a
great
song.
It
made
you
feel
happy
at
first,
but
then
it
got
a
little
sad
when
Scar
started
feeling
jealous.
Krishiv:
Why
was
Scar
so
mean?
Dad:
I
think
Scar
was
upset
because
he
wanted
to
be
special
too,
but
he
didn’t
understand
that
being
kind
and
working
together
is
what
makes
you
great.
Krishiv:
Yeah,
Mufasa
tried
to
help
him
but
Scar
didn’t
want
to
listen.
Dad:
That’s
right.
And
that’s
another
lesson:
jealousy
can
make
people
do
bad
things.
But
Mufasa
showed
us
how
important
it
is
to
stay
kind
and
brave.
I
feel
it
also
makes
a
great
story.
Even
the
villains
have
their
reasons,
and
it
shows
us
what
happens
when
we
let
anger
or
jealousy
win.
Krishiv:
So
do
you
think
Mufasa
was
always
the
best
king
ever?
Dad:
I
think
he
became
the
best
king
because
he
learned
from
his
mistakes
and
listened
to
the
people
around
him.
That’s
what
being
a
good
leader
is
about.
Krishiv:
I
want
to
be
like
Mufasa
when
I
grow
up!
Strong,
brave,
and
kind.
Dad:
You
already
are,
buddy.
And
just
like
Mufasa,
you’ll
grow
into
it
one
step
at
a
time.
Krishiv:
This
was
the
best
day
ever.
Thanks
for
taking
me,
Dad.
I
would
tell
all
my
friends
to
go
and
watch
the
movie.
Dad:
How
would
you
rate
the
movie?
Krishiv:
I
don’t
want
to
do
a
boring
‘4
out
of
5
stars’.
Instead,
I’ll
rate
it
10
out
of
10
roaring
lions!
Or
maybe
two
scoops
of
my
favourite
chocolate
ice
cream
with
extra
sprinkles
because
it
was
that
sweet!
Seven-year-old
Krishiv,
who
lives
in
New
Zealand,
finally
settles
for
a
4-star
rating
for
the
movie.
