Review of Aladdin (2019) by Justbrutal — 25 May 2019
A menacing Jafar? Nope. A light voiced young boy. A Princess Jasmine that wants to escape from the pressure of forced marriage (a big problem in the part of the world this work is created in) nope, she actually wants to be the Sultan. A funny, likable, talented star as the heart of the film playing The Genie? Nope. Will Smith. Playing, well Will Smith. Hell he even becomes black, gives himself legs & makes Will Smith noises. Iheago being a strangely likeable sarcastic talking parrot? Nope. Pretty much a normal parrot. That then gets really big to chase people around. At least we will have Jafar turn into a massive Cobra at the end of the film to use Disney's CGI to great effect right?... Nah. That's replaced by that big parrot I mentioned earlier.
A pathetic, awful, cashgrab.
