Lacks the style, excitement, and originality of the original films, coming off as a cynical exercise in franchise-revival.
Self-aggrandized and stiff, Villeneuve’s rendition is more proof Herbert’s material may not be suited for cinema.
Embarrassing performances, a predictable story, and poor direction make this one of the worst big-budget movies of the year.
A major disappointment showcasing a frail Eastwood and predictable story that goes nowhere.
Eschews the off-kilter absurdities of the Disney ride and plays it safe for more general audiences.

A bland, drawn-out story that unsuccessfully tries to capitalize on the magic found in Peter Pan and Alice in Wonderland.
