Robin Williams made this worth watching

Rating: 6/10 (14 May 2008)

I'm sorry, but I never took interest in why people would care for Aladdin or Jasmine when all along it was Robin Williams as the genie that gave the movie it's heart and soul. Most people and critics alike had applauded the film for being more of a Robin William's movie than caring for the other characters.
The title character (Aladdin) is a street thief with his trusted monkey Abu (voice of Frank Welker) in which the thief must do what he can to survive until he meets a woman who's about to be punish before saving her. What he realizes is that the woman he saved (Jasmine) is a princess in which she must only marry a prince and not some peasant off the streets until Aladdin embarks on a journey with a prisoner of hidden treasures before finding a magic lamp with one insane genie (Robin Williams). Just like any other movie with a genie in a lamp, it's all about the three wishes in which one of them grants Aladdin the wish to be a prince to woo Jasmine.
To me, it's all about Robin Williams and his impersonation of everybody to Groucho Marx, Arsenio Hall, Rocky Balboa (Sylvester Stallone), and anybody you can think of that saves this movie.
