A very fun film, better for older people!

Rating: 8/10 (7 August 2008)

I do not want to insult anybody or let anybody take this statement in the wrong light, but: I think this film is a great deal better for people aged 12 and over. Why? Because I think that there is so much "adult" humour to be enjoyed in this film that little children do not need to watch it. But I am not saying they should not! Little children will like the characters, the adventures and the songs, which is perfectly hunky dory, but they will miss the humour, which is perhaps the best part of this film. The humour is provided mainly by Robin Williams who voices the genie and Gilbert Gottfried, who voices Iago the parrot.
In this very good animated Disney film, we meet Jafar, the Sultan's evil adviser, who is trying to find a magic lamp, with a genie which will make him Sultan. We also meet Aladdin, a street rat, with no money and stealing everything he needs. We meet Jasmine, princess Jasmine, who does not want to marry any of the suitors her father, the Sultan, is offering her to marry. Soon enough, an adventure will begin between these characters - and more...
I recommend this to anyone who has a sense of humour and to anyone who likes Disney films. I will say this: Anyone of any age can watch this film, but people who understand more grown-up humour will enjoy this more. Enjoy "Aladdin"! :-)
