Aladdin

Director :Guy Ritchie
Genre : Musical/Fantasy
Language:English
Year :2019

Everyone is familiar with the story of the street urchin who fell in love with the beautiful princess and who became master of the genie in the magic lamp.Some of you heard it as a fairy tale or read it somewhere.But most are familiar because of 1992 Disney animated film.After 22 years,Disney is bringing back Allddin-but this time as live action adaptation.I mean,that is what is currently going on with the studio - bringing back old animation classics and the latest is Aladdin.So how is the new version?
Well it is awesome....
First of all let me tell you about the most beautiful person in the film - Naomi Scott as Princess Jasmine.
She is just perfect...Best casting of a Disney Princess after Emma Watson as Bella in Beauty and the Beast.

Mena Massoud looks like the animated Alladin just came to life ..Another perfect casting...
Now comes Will Smith as the lovable genie -the role played by great Robin Williams in the original version.Smith portrays a genie in his own style and it is awesome - Loved the hip hope part..
Abu,the monkey,the magic carpet,the lion head cave of wonders,city of Agraba,Sulthan and tiger Raja -all done well...Perhaps only weak point was Jafar,the evil wizard and his parrot Iago -never really looked that much threatening


End of the day,it is a fairy tale which conveys the message of the need to stay truthful about who you really are.It is a musical with songs,dance and visual treat.In many ways,it is more like a bollywood movie.


Loved it...
