Simple review

Rating: Null/10 (30 May 2019)

Aladdin was a fun movie that although took a more realistic approach, stayed true to its source material. Aladdin and jasmine's character both had great chemistry and fit their roles well. And although it is impossible to beat Robin Williams' performance, I felt that Will Smith did a great job. The story was essentially the same, with a few small changes, but those changes felt natural and did not ruin the narrative. Most of the songs were pretty good, even the couple new ones they added still for the most part fit into place. Overall Aladdin was a fun movie that still suffers from the same thing as the other live action Disney remakes; being in the shadow of the original.
