Disney's 1992 animated feature Aladdin is a triumph of wit and skill. The high-tech artwork and graphics look great, the characters are strong, the familiar story is nicely augmented with an interesting villain (Jafar, voiced by Jonathan Freeman), and there's an incredible hook atop the whole thing: Robin Williams's frantically hilarious vocal performance as Aladdin's genie. Even if one isn't particularly moved by the love story between the title character (Scott Weinger) and his girlfriend Jasmine (Linda Larkin), you can easily get lost in Williams's improvisational energy and the equally entertaining performances of Freeman and Gilbert Gottfried (as Jafar's parrot). --Tom Keogh

ultimet Disney yet again that sticks to my heart like honey Aladdin is an entirely different spin on the fairy tale genre mainly focusing on the hero rather than the heroine perspective.

One of Disney's funniest and likeable films with pop-culture references. The voice talent is exceptional - the most noteworthy and memorable being the quick-changing Genie as voiced Robin Williams, who gave this film plenty of funny pop-culture references and importantly an emotional depth as well as the laughs. Abu's chimp noises and some words also made me giggle, Aladdin's boyish charm and cockiness and Jasmine's independent thinking and strong character voices fit perfectly and Jafar has the traditional Disney menace coupled with the abrasive sidekick parrot Iago.more info
a great old Disney animation In this Disney family animation, street thief Aladdin runs into the princess and falls in love with her, but she can only marry a prince. It has been some years since we have seen a classic 2D animation as we enter a stage in film where everything is about visual effects rather than the narrative, and thankfully we have these wonderful films to look back on with a good solid plot, which is funny, strong and consistent throughout, and which is proper entertainment for the whole family.

Brilliant! This undoubtedly is one of the best Disney films ever made. Great songs, hilarious characters, and a magical story that the whole family can enjoy. This film shows Aladdin, a street rat as he is referred to by the Palace guards, scrapping for every thing he can get, along with his pet monkey Abu.
