For a guy with a past in music, Will Smith can’t really sing…

All the actors were so stiff and dull. It was painful to watch. I wanted to like it, the costumes and art design was the best part of the film. I like some of the timeline changed but it was boring.

This movie is the worst live action remake ever the cgi was bad the bad guy is definitely bad and the story was plane awful it’s not like the old one the only good things are will smith and the songs he sings like friend like me was one of the best songs in the movie and I actually liked it better then the old one and I will never say that about Williams genie. But the other songs was horrible and I almost walked out of the theater and I’m talking about the other people like Aladdin and the others not the genie. This was the worst movie of the year!!!!!! The only reason why I saw this is because my friend loves Aladdin so we went and my friend hated it too this was a disappointment of the year and the jokes are bad but there’s one good joke that made me laugh but that’s it!!!!!!

2019’s ‘Aladdin’ is colourful, vibrant, and full of enough energy to make it entertaining to watch in its own right, even if it’s abundantly clear that it doesn’t hold a candle to the original with more than one thing being lost in the transition from animation to live-action. Yes, one of those things is Robin Williams’ iconic genie, but Will Smith does a surprisingly good job of delivering his own, likeable version that ends up being the stand-out aspect of the film. To state the obvious, live-action remakes will never be able to live up to their classic animated counterparts, not just because they’re classics or because of the limitations of using real people, but because you can never recapture the nostalgia or magic a generation of people felt whilst watching them as kids. That being said, this might be Disney’s best attempt so far and may well be as good as its going to get.

It’s almost good when it’s not trying to be a musical
