Not as bad as I thought it was going to be.

Rating: 6/10 (29 February 2020)

Aladdin was a childhood favourite for me and I dont think they did to bad with this as a remake.
The casting was good, I even thought Will Smith wasn't too bad as the genie (which I had my doubts about), not really any comparison to Robin Williams in the original. The story was good and they kept to the original for most of the film and even the changes they made fitted nicely, and coincided nicely within today's world of equality. The acting was good and I actually had a laugh watching this and remembering all of the old songs which I loved as a child.
I give it 6.5 /10. It's not a record breaking film by any stretch of the imagination and the original will always score higher but I enjoyed it. It's worth a watch.
