The cartoon is much better

Rating: 4/10 (10 February 2020)

I think Will Smith and the Genie got a lot of extra hate in this movie. Was it weird? Yes. But not nearly as bad as Jafar, or I'd argue even Jasmine. Will Smith in this movie was nowhere near as bad as Jafar. Jafar was just unconvincing as an antagonist. Honestly, Naomi Scott as Jasmine wasn't that great either and her solo song was odd and felt misplaced. The movie wasn't necessarily terrible, in my opinion, but the movie was not representative of the cartoon I remember as a child. It honestly just felt like a cash grab by Disney.
Aladdin gets a 4/10.
