Disney's Young Washington: A Missed Opportunity

So, I just caught a glimpse of the new film "Young Washington" hitting theaters, and I have to say it feels like a letdown. As a fan of historical dramas, I was hoping for a gripping exploration of George Washington's formative years, but it sounds more like a basic TV flick with cardboard characters and half-baked CGI. The battle scenes seem engaging enough, which is a redeeming quality, but it sounds like they missed a real chance to dive into the complexities of Washington's character. Instead of presenting a nuanced portrait, they're serving up a romanticized version of him as this invincible action hero. It's frustrating because given the era it tackles, there's so much rich material to draw from, and instead, they're opting for something that's, let's be honest, pretty shallow. I had high expectations but it looks like "Young Washington" has fallen flat. What do you all think?
