I haven't seen it, but is it possible that we as grown ups are looking at a kids movie meant for kids without considering that it's meant for kids?

Again, haven't seen it, but it's just a thought.

Edit: okay, I've seen it, and I definitely think it suffers from being live action. Can't know much about the actual story from the teaser, but it definitely took an "interesting" stylistic approach.

Maybe? But in my opinion, judging from the trailer, this just feels like a cash grab made with horrible CGI.

Tbf even crappy looking CGI can cost a shitload to produce. Ant Man and the Wasp: Quantamania had a budget of about $325 million before tax credits, the most expensive non Avengers movie Marvel Studios ever released (at least at the time idk about now)

Disney's Wish cost about $175-$200 million to produce, which is about average for an animated Disney film, but one of its biggest criticisms on release was how cheap it looked.

I don't wanna defend studios making shitty decisions, I'm just saying, similar to the current state of the videogame market, there's real people with real passion for their craft working on these movies, and it's unfortunate that decisions which they likely have no say in force them to something which reflects poorly on them.

For Wish they wanted to make it look like it was made with water color. Problem was that it made it look like a Disney XD show. That’s when you only look at the rendering. The animations themselves are definitely on the level of a typical big budget Disney animation. The budget of a CG animation is more then just the rendering, lighting and shading department.
