10.Tom & Jerry: The Movie

A chaotic battle ensures between Jerry Mouse, who has taken refuge in the Royal Gate Hotel, and Tom Cat, who is hired to drive him away before the day of a big wedding arrives. A great ideal for a live action film, unfortunately this is too hyperactive and it not really laugh out loud funny and it didn’t have any nice moments, I really wanted to like this a bit more but it does not work at all.
9.Scoob!

Scooby and the gang face their most challenging mystery ever: a plot to unleash the ghost dog Cerberus upon the world. I actually growing up watching the cartoon and I’m really into the live action films, but whereas with this one this isn’t memorable whatsoever and it have too many villains, overall this isn’t entertaining and it just too safe and too predictable.
8.Dredd (2012)

In a violent, futuristic city where the police have the authority to act as judge, jury and executioner, a cop teams with a trainee to take down a gang that deals the reality – altering drug, SLO – MO. Personally I thought this would be amazing as I really like the original one, this one got really excessive violence and it take itself too seriously, it also hard to watch and it is too dark and gloomy.
7.Aladdin

A kind – hearted street urchin and a power – hungry Grand Vizier vie for a magic lamp that has the power to make their deepest wishes come true. It might have got an all – star cast and the film itself look gorgeous but it lacking the emotional aspect, It just feel like the director is out of his element as he normally do gangsters type of film, it is a real shame as it got potential but it certainly does failed.
6.Fantastic Four (2015)

Four young outsiders teleport to an alternate and dangerous universe which alters their physical form in shocking ways. Too be honest with you I really like the original two films and when this come out I thought it would be amazing, with this one it isn’t memorable whatsoever and it mainly action and it lacking the character development, it also try to be too overcomplicated and it doesn’t work.
5.Mary Poppins Returns

A few decades after her original visit, Mary Poppins, the magical nanny, returns to help the Banks family siblings and Michael’s children through a difficult time in their lives. Firstly I haven’t see the original one so I thought this would be good, I was completely wrong and none of the songs are memorable, the acting is okay but the film overall is lacking that magic and it doesn’t wowed you.
4.Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2014 – 2016)

The Turtles get into another battle with their enemy the Shredder, who has acquired new allies: the mutant thugs Bebop and Rocksteady and the alien being Krang. While I growing up I actually like the 1990s version, with this one it lacking the charmed and none of the updates turtles haven’t got the charisma, also the set pieces doesn’t excited you at all and it doesn’t really thrilled you.
3.The Batman

When a sadistic serial killer begins murdering key political figures in Gotham, Batman is forced to investigate the city’s hidden corruption and question his family’s involvement. Personally I like the previous Batman films and the soundtrack is fantastic, with this new version it feel rather miscast and the pacing is wrong, it lacking the psychological edge and the villains isn’t memorable.
2.The Lion King (2019)

After the murder of his father, a young lion prince flees his kingdom only to learn the true meaning of responsibility and bravery. Since when I was little I always like the animated version of The Lion King, I really thought this would be amazing and it certainly failed as none of the songs is memorable, the vocal talent is bland but John Oliver is brilliant as Zazu as he is hilarious and the film itself is uneven and too overlong.
1.The Witches (2020)

In late 1969, a young boy goes to live with his loving grandma in the rural Alabama town of Demopolis. As the boy and his grandmother encounter diabolical witches at a seaside hotel. For me personally I really like the setting of 1969, the acting in general is superb but with this version it isn’t subtle and it lacking the psychological edge, it also take itself too seriously and the ending is silly and it doesn’t creep you under your skin.
The only one of these that I have seen is Dredd, and I agree entirely with your comments.
