The 11 most over-hyped movies of 2017

Disney/Neon

2017 has been a fantastic year for cinephiles, with acclaimed indie hits like "Lady Bird" and "Call Me By Your Name" taking critics by storm, or bigger blockbusters like "Wonder Woman" setting new box office records. But not all movies are can live up to the hype. 

Keep reading for a look at the 11 most over-hyped films of the year.

The "Beauty and the Beast" live-action remake fell short for many Disney fans.

Disney's first epic live-action reboot paid off at the box office ("Beauty and the Beast" grossed  more than $1 billion in theaters), but fans' reception to the film was lukewarm. The new version's many changes to the original animated feature led to a less magical experience.

Stephen King's beloved "Dark Tower" book series was adapted into a movie after 10 years building hype, and everyone was let down.

Critics and fans alike skewered "Dark Tower" once it finally hit theaters earlier this year. The movie was bounced around from director to director over a period of 10 years, and fans were trying to stay optimistic. But the ultimate result was a slapdash and nonsensical action movie with no heart.

Universal hoped to make a franchise out of Tom Cruise's "The Mummy," but the reboot was a huge summer flop.

Critics called "The Mummy" the worst movie Tom Cruise has ever made and fans didn't flock to the theaters either. The film wound up losing almost $100 million after bombing at the box office. Universal bet big on this reboot, but not even nostalgia could save this movie from doom.
