Aladdin

The sides of Aladdin

  • A street thief and a princess
  • A genie who never stops talking
  • A magic carpet ride

Aladdin is good for you if…

  • you like a genie doing a hundred impressions a minute.
  • you like songs like A Whole New World, sung on a flying carpet.
  • you like a street thief who poses as a prince to win a princess.

Aladdin is bad for you if…

  • you don't watch animated films.
  • hand-drawn animation from 1992 feels dated to you.
