The Lion King 2019 gets all of its musical numbers spot on. They're uplifting and fun. 1 / 6
Except for "Be Prepared," which is woeful. 2 / 6
"Can You Feel The Love Tonight" is a sweet, tender moment 3 / 6
But "Be Prepared" is dull, lifeless, inadequate and feels very out of place. 4 / 6
Scar was originally camp and deliciously evil, but now Scar is more restrained. 5 / 6
As such, the song doesn't suit his character, and it should have just been cut. 6 / 6
