    Dumbo
    All of which is to say that Dumbo feels totally consistent with Burton’s late-period slump. Abysmally scripted and hammily acted – and not, for the most part, in an interesting or ironic way – Dumbo recasts Disney’s animated classic in the trappings and suits of Burton’s pinstripe-and-pinwheel upholstery.

    A Walk in the Woods
    The nature of this fantasy is boringly feel-good and aspirational.

    Suicide Squad
    Regrettably, the film’s place-setting opening lays the scene for a different, more exciting film that never really unfolds.
