Aladdin is a jubilant and energetic Disney retelling that mostly succeeds in updating the animated version, even if it never feels quite as magical. Read more

Overall Aladdin is a pretty fun movie, though overlong at 2 hours 8 minutes. Read more

The transition from animation to live-action was pretty well executed by Guy Richie, creating a wonderfully colorful and vibrant world. Mena Massoud is a charmingly likeable Aladdin and his chemistry with Smith’s Genie is smooth and playful. Although, choppy editing and transitioning makes the film feel uneven.

Guy Ritchie's live-action take on Aladdin isn't horrible, but it skirts on the question of necessity as the film mostly recreates the animated classic, with very little alterations or adjustments. It's well-acted and mostly harmless, but struggles balancing its own take with the established property.

It’s a perfectly fun way to spend a couple of hours at the cinema, and for kids, particularly those without the reference of the Disney original, will probably love it. Read more

The film still offers some perfectly fine moments of overly manufactured family entertainment that will make many parents nostalgic for the original. But after the live-action heights hit by The Jungle Book and Beauty and the Beast, this Aladdin is a carpet ride missing much of its magic. Read more

A sumptuous visual feast anchored in two incredible performances from relatively unknown leads, that stumbles and falters whenever a certain blue magical deity is on screen. Read more

Watching this live-action iteration isn’t better than revisiting the Ron Clement and John Musker masterpiece. Read more

Yes, it is wonderful Disney sought people of color for this ethic fairy tale, but the clout of their portrayals and the substance of their actions are not improvements. If you’re going to do the right thing by diversity, go all the way, not just halfway or selectively. Dare to combat stereotypes completely. Read more

It should be mentioned that Aladdin is a mostly faithful adaptation. Though, it just feels so uninspired. Read more

The casting and performances in Aladdin are one step forward and two steps back. Read more

A charmless, passionless chore bereft of energy and originality that fails to justify its own existence. There is no reason to watch this version when the animated original already exists as it does broadly the same things except worse and has a longer running time. Read more

Het acteerwerk is niet het enige positieve aan de remake van Aladdin, want zoals geschreven kun je het Guy Ritchie wel toevertrouwen om een stijlvolle film op het scherm te toveren.

Aladdin is dan ook een prima remake hoewel ik in het begin even moest schakelen. Je bent al snel geneigd om te gaan vergelijken, maar dat zal weinig goed doen. Om de klassieker uit de jaren ’90 te evenaren is een onmogelijke klus en het advies is dan ook om er blanco in te stappen.

Bovenal is de remake heel kleurrijk, magisch en kindvriendelijk, met her en der een uitschieter in de CGI die verraadt dat je hem eigenlijk in 3D zou moeten kijken. Read more

Aladdin (2019) is geen vervanging voor de animatieklassieker, maar werkt wel als een begeleidend stuk. Read more

Ondanks de vele gebreken weet de film te charmeren dankzij de aangename cast. De chemie tussen Will Smith en Mena Massoud zorgt voor warmte, terwijl Marwan Kenzari zichtbaar geniet van zijn rol als de corrupte Jafar. Read more

Aladdin is zeker een vermakelijke live action-remake, maar zo betoverend als het origineel wordt het helaas nergens. Regisseur... Read more

Aladdin ziet er visueel gelikt uit, maar houdt te krampachtig vast aan het origineel. Juist als Ritchie lef lijkt te tonen met de opening blijkt de film als snel van een bedroevend niveau. Read more

Zet de cartoon dus maar terug op. Deze live action versie van Aladdin is misschien trouw aan zijn roots, maar zijn schim siert het niet. Read more

Het moet raar lopen, wil Disneys live-action-remake van ALADDIN in december niet ergens onderaan het jaarlijstje bungelen. Dit is oprecht een schokkend slechte film. Read more
