Aladdin

Aladdin was another one of the 4 Disney movies that made Disney a big name including The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast and the Lion King. What's the story? Aladdin is a thief who's trying to survive while living on the streets with his pet monkey named "Abu." He comes across a princess named "Jasmine" who's trying to get away from the palace to make a life for her own. But he get's captured by a sorcerer named "Jafar" and he tricks Aladdin into searching for a magic lamp. In the cave where he goes searching for it he meets a magic flying carpet and of course the genie of the lamp named "Genie" played by Robin William. So he goes back to his village called "Agrabah" wishing to turn himself into a prince. This allows him the chance to marry Jasmine but Jafar won't let it happen he tries to kill Aladdin and take the lamp away from him so he can use Genie for his own evil plans. From here on in it's action, comedy, sword-fighting, monsters and a happy ending. O.k so what's good about this movie. Well for one thing the animation in this is really spectacular and even the colours are wonderfully used in this. There' a lot of comedy in this especially out of Robin Williams' performance of the joke-making Genie. (P.S. I'm pretty sure you've all heard of Robin Williams' recent tragic death.) Aladdin himself in a fun character. He's a rascal bit still has kindness and a good heart. Jasmine is a sweet normal kind-hearted Disney princess who is nice and has innocents to her. Her father, the Sultan is a funny. enjoyably stupid character. Jafar is pretty cool and his parrot "Iago" is pretty funny to. Just to give you a hint as to why this is a funny movie just watch these scenes.
Genie is my favourite character because he's so energetic and funny. The songs are also really awesome. This is definitely a great movie and it's family friendly. It's entertain so I say that's than enough to recommend it.
