1. Beauty and the Beast (2017)
Saying the 2017 Beauty and the Beast is the best of the live-action Disney remakes may be controversial to some. But out of all these films, few had as difficult a task or knew the assignment as well. This movie clearly loves and adores the original, so you get a lot of that—but then you also get some tweaks and additions that make it stand out, and a cast that brings every scene to vibrant life. It’s not a perfect movie (Emma Watson, sorry you were auto-tuned to hell), none of these are, but with everything on the table, Beauty and the Beast delivered a film worthy of the original.
