The Worst Disney Live-Action Remakes Ever

Once upon a time, there was a Hollywood studio built on bringing the impossible to life. From a complex of offices on Buena Vista Street in Burbank, California, Walt Disney and his brilliant artists helped pioneer the art of feature animation.

These movies have almost all been hits; several ran among the highest-grossing movies made in the medium’s entire history. But not all of them have been very good. For every Cinderella or The Jungle Book there have been quite a few creative misfires. Here are ten of the most notorious offenders to date, ranked from almost passable to borderline unwatchable.
