Quit comparing, just enjoy!

To start...I think anyone reviewing comparing this movie to the original has missed the mark. Of course it's not going to match the magic you remember as a kid. Walt Disney said it himself, "animation can explain whatever the mind of man can conceive." - the animated version has its place in history, it did what no live action movie could ever do.. and that's okay!!!!
When you see this movie, just watch it and clear your mind from your nostalgia clouding your judgement. It's a good movie! It's funny, the acting is incredible, the songs are fun (maybe one jump was missing a few musical elements that made it "jump" out- it fell a little flat), the visuals are outstanding. I base a good Disney movie on if I cry, and I cried twice. Princess Jasmine blew it away, she finally gets something she has deserved for a long time (a song and a place of power). Her performance is something every young person needs to see. We should not be shocked that jasmine has a power ballad about being forced to stay silent. Don't make it political. Go see this movie. Seeing this movie will not ruin the masterpiece that is the animated version. You will not explode and the old Aladdin will not be wiped from your memory. Just have fun, people!!!!
