A very good live action movie!

Rating: 7/10 (29 May 2019)

I didn't know what I was expecting when I went to see this movie in theaters but it certainly did the original justice. Some people may be unhappy with the differences between this movie and the original but that is to be expected when turning an animated movie into live action. I for one like the new scenes and story lines. Admittedly, some of the singing sequences were awkward but what do you expect when non animated characters start singing in the middle of a scene. However, there was some new songs mixed in with the originals and they were all fun to listen to. I absolutely loved Will Smith's Genie! The character had a lot of depth and he was awesome to watch him joke around. Additionally, I thought it was awesome how he had a love interest in this version; it was a nice touch.
