Pretty Good

Rating: 8/10 (27 January 2020)

OK, so Will Smith is playing himself. But it's controlled so he is entertaining and witty without being intrusive. The effects are such that they do not obscure the movie. The city scenes are especially Caravaggio and magical.
We all know the plot and characters from the panto. So no surprises. But again, it's mot over the top. Jafar is acted especially well.
This movie got some bad reviews. In my view the audience got what was promised. A high production value,decently played simple fantasy.
