A wonderful fairytale

Rating: 9/10 (19 June 2019)

Unfortunately most of the professional critics consumed in a shallow and totally technical approach to this charming film.
Ritchie offers us an exquisite, multicolored look at Agraba in a high aesthetic style, lustrous costumes, unforgettable choreographies and amazing songs, an intelligent rhythm of narration and only the necessary inventiveness (remember that the films arent a contest of story reversal!)
Excellent cast choices and here we need a parenthesis ,
Concerning the interpretation of the theatrical Marwan Kozari as Jafar, it is worth to have in mind that the scripts have given a different approach to his role. In particular, the imposing dark and sardonic (self) sarcastic of the original, the live action version has a greater depth. It is about a more realistic, human character where his obsession with absolute power is in fact a human weaknesses - the slowness of the immoral personal recognition - not as a sinister malicious wicked magician but a high-ranking member of the palace of his time with magical qualities insidious diplomacy , and expansive dreams And general , he brilliantly surroundswithout overshadowing ,the exeptional star-twin (Outstanding Massoud ,Naomi Scott its a revelation) , where with delightful Smith who gives his own unique perfomance show they advocate a wonderful all-time classic fairytale where, although familiar, it continues to fascinate.
