@Star I didn't realize that Jack was Flanderized until you mentioned it. But, for me, First Installment Wins.
https://youtu.be/_1F5HhUvFbM?si=csgwerqELcG6615qThe franchise is a textbook example explaining why you don't make the Ensemble Dark Horse the main character. Jack fails as a protagonist as he works well as the goofy side character, but just doesn't have enough substance to carry a film, let alone a trilogy.
Elizabeth was supposed to be the main character in the movies she was in but then the creaotrs decided to give Jack more and more screen time. It got so bad that whenever Will and Liz are on screen, audiences felt irritated.

Blind Final Fantasy 6 Let's Play@Star I thought if the writers had something interesting to do with her and Will, the movies could have been a LOT better.

https://youtu.be/_1F5HhUvFbM?si=csgwerqELcG6615qHow so? As I understand it, the only similarity was the name. Or maybe they had a couple scenes that were homages to the right but nothing major.
Blind Final Fantasy 6 Let's Play@Story No idea. I think the characters in the movie were truly original.
https://youtu.be/_1F5HhUvFbM?si=csgwerqELcG6615qI suppose the other end of the spectrum is Animorphs. Talk about a bad ending.

@Story I liked the 1st movie fine. People said it was a bit too long but I felt it was just fine. The 2nd one was ok, the 3rd one was just a wreck and way too long and clunky. When it came to the 4th one...it was better than the 3rd but I just didn't care.
