13 Movies That Are Destined To Disappoint In 2019

Aladdin Will Smith
Disney

Disney's recent run on live-action remakes of their animated classics has mostly been successful...for now.

Cinderella went down a treat, The Jungle Book was incredible, and though it was far from perfect, Beauty and the Beast was a passionate love letter to its predecessor.

But doesn't Guy Ritchie's live-action Aladdin movie look like a dud in the making?

Ritchie is one of the most frustratingly inconsistent directors working in Hollywood today, to say nothing of the peculiar presence of Will Smith as the Genie, better resembling a panto performer than a feted A-lister.

Just about everybody with any of their inner-child still in tact wants this movie to be great, but from what we've seen so far, this looks like a mixed bag at absolute best. It'll still make fat stacks of cash, though.
