As being born a year before the original came out, it was one of my favorites growing up. When I heard the new version was being released I was beyond excited to see how it's brought to life and I was NOT disappointed! Will Smith as the Genie brought such a new light to the character while still giving you glimpses of the Genie Robin Williams created for us years ago, so that was so nice to see. The cinematography was beautiful and seeing shots of the entire palace gave you a feeling of nostalgia and also wishing you were there. It was just so so beautifully created. And the comedy! It was SO funny!! Take my word -- go into this with less of a comparison mind and have an open one. It's a beautiful, fun, comical new take on an old classic. You won't regret it.
