Almost didn't watch it due to the negative reviews!

Rating: 9/10 (14 September 2019)

My God what a vast difference in opinion on this movie. Finally watched it with my daughter and the whole family and we loved it! Will Smith's portrayal of the genie was perfect, Alladin's acting equally impressive!
Methinks we need to disassociate animation from real acts. If you expected everything similar to the animation you'll be disappointed. What we have here is a real depiction of the animation, great effects and great acting that will leave you thoroughly entertained if you watch it with a clear might.
Forget the haters!!
