Saahil Khan is back after a long time, and delivers very funny sequences, he has improved a lot and I wouldn't mind seeing him in future movies. Amitabh Bachchan is of course excellent, he is very energetic as Genius and lightens up the screen whenever he is there. Riteish Deshmukh is very good though, as Aladin, he is very lovable in the film and delivers a nice performance. Jacqueline Fernandes should get some acting classes, looking beautiful is not enough, because it can make you look stupid on screen when you are supposed to ACT instead of just be there and giving a smile. Where does the movie lack? The direction, the way the story is told is kind of boring and doesn't keep you interested at all.

This could have been a great movie, the special effects in the movie are good. Showing all 2 items Jump to: Summaries (2) Summaries. Aladin had a nice concept the concept of using the real Aladdin story and giving it an Indian touch. He can give excellent performances if the directors can pull it out of him. For 49 now, organizers say you be given priority access to purchase tickets once they go on sale. I watch all his movies because he is the package with talent. I liked it fine, but it mostly just made me want to watch the original again.Riteish Deshmukh is one actor I really like. The result is a movie that's not bad, but never truly great either. ![]() And that feels like a lot of the movie, they try to meet in the middle. ![]() I'd say either go all in, or cut the songs entirely, but instead they try to meet in the middle. There are exceptions, like "Friend Like Me", but for the most part this is the standard. The Prince Ali segment desperately wants to be a big Bollywood number, but just looks like someone filmed a pretty good parade. It's not as fun/funny as the animated film, and it doesn't have the flair or energy of a Bollywood film. In the "One Jump" sequence, a lot of stuff is happening, but it sort of feels like they're all going through the motions. It's sort of doing a Bollywood thing, and while it's got all the flair it just lacks the energy and passion. Then there's the things the movie tried that just didn't quite work, namely its music. Did every beat hit for him? Will he ever replace Williams? No to both, but he was good enough for what the movie needed.

Still, there were some things I liked, even some changes I liked. A lot's been said about him, so I won't pile on, but holy god talk about miscasting, he was awful. They make some weird changes for the worse here (especially in the climax) that just don't help the story, and despite being longer it weirdly rushes through some classic moments in a Cliff Notes fashion. It's not bad, it's enjoyable for what it is, but at the end of the day if I want Aladdin I'll probably just go back to the original. It's still an interesting experiment in itself. ![]() It's a bit up-and-down, but often it feels like, at best, a pretty good stage production of the classic film where I'd usually rather be watching that film. ![]()
