Based on The Lion King: The Gift, Beyonce’s visual masterpiece titled Black Is King is gaining rave reviews worldwide with fans and critics alike calling it Beyonce’s magnum opus.
The visual album works best when the Queen herself is on screen – her aura is terrific and the clothes, the history, and the lyrics are like a jolt for those of us who have been lulled into sadness due to the nationwide lockdown.
On review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, the film holds an approval rating of 100% and the website’s critical consensus states that “Beyonce is King”.
As of August 2020, Black Is King is the highest-rated Disney+ original program.
